#KarnatakaJobsForKannadigas became a trend immediately after it started on the social media platforms on May 4. It is a great irony that the native Kannadigas are losing out prominent jobs to North Indians in their own state.
The trend has been started to attract attention to the fact that several people in the state of Karnataka are losing job opportunities.
The trend is following the pattern of #TamilNaduJobsForTamils started on May 3 after several posts in the railway department were allocated to the citizens from North India currently staying in Tamil Nadu.
Social Activists Started #KarnatakaJobsForKannadigas
Reports say that the social and Kannada activists started the trend #KarnatakaJobsForKannadigas around 6 pm on May 4. However, several tweets related to the issue had already started from the morning of Saturday.
Some tweets talked about getting violent whereas some suggested centralized states like in the US for better prosperity and growth.
American Jobs go for Americans, Australian jobs go for Australians. It is only natural to say that Karnataka jobs should go for Kannadigas #KarnatakaJobsForKannadigas

Well, #KarnatakaJobsForKannadigas is a plausible demand. The Government of Karnataka shells out its resources to create jobs and it’s only apt that the first preference is given to the Kannadigas while hiring. As simple as that.#KarnatakaJobsForKannadigas

Karnataka's wealth is kannadigas effort "Bengaluru is built with by entire kannadigas effort and now outside state people may say we built haha but before development where does capital came to Bengaluru" so Kannadigas atleast deserve jobs #KarnatakajobsforKannadigas

If they do not find any suitable native candidate for the position, only then should they consider taking candidates from other states. The people involved have inquired as to why many banks recruit employees when they cannot even speak the local language properly making it difficult for them to convey and converse with the bank account holders.

In some of the tweets, people have said that natives of different states get jobs much quicker as compared to those living in the state.
CM Of Karnataka Responds:
ಸಾಮಾಜಿಕ ಜಾಲತಾಣದಲ್ಲಿ ನಮ್ಮ ರಾಜ್ಯದ ಯುವ ಜನತೆ ರಾಜ್ಯದಲ್ಲಿ ಸೃಷ್ಟಿಯಾಗುವ ಉದ್ಯೋಗಳು ಕನ್ನಡಿಗರಿಗೆ ದಕ್ಕಬೇಕು ಎಂದು ಹೋರಾಟ ನೆಡೆಸುತ್ತಿರುವುದನ್ನು ಗಮನಿಸಿದ್ದೇನೆ.
ಕನ್ನಡಿಗರ ಹಕ್ಕೊತ್ತಾಯವನ್ನು ಪರಿಗಣಿಸಿ ಕಾನೂನಿನ ಚೌಕಟ್ಟಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಹೇಗೆ ಕಾರ್ಯರೂಪಕ್ಕೆ ತರಬಹುದು ಎಂದು ಸಲಹೆ ಪಡೆಯಲಾಗುವುದು.
