'Hindi wala' autos running without permits? Post goes viral
A Bengaluru autorickshaw grabbed attention online after displaying a sign accusing "Hindi wala" autos of running illegal autos without permits, especially in KR Puram and Mahadevapura.
The post, shared by 'nammabengaluroo' on Instagram, called out the negativity toward drivers who follow the rules and quickly got people talking.
Debate on language and local culture
The post reignited old debates about language and respect for local culture.
Some users encouraged learning Kannada as a way to connect with the city, while others felt the message was too harsh.
Many pointed out that these divisions just make daily life harder—like pushing more people to drive their own cars instead of using public transport.
The conversation also touched on fairness, with some noting that breaking rules isn't limited to any one group of drivers.
