“Bengaluru Is Because Of North Indians”: Woman’s Comment Sparks Debate Online
A video of a woman in which she claims that “Bengaluru is Bengaluru because of North Indians” has triggered a discussion online about Bengaluru vs other cities. In the clip, shared on X, the woman was asked about the “cultural shock” she experienced after moving from North India to Bengaluru. To this, she said, “I don’t know about the cultural shock, but people here do hate North Indians. That’s what I observed”. She also alleged that people in the city view North Indians differently and sometimes address them as “these Hindi people”.
“I observe people behaving differently when they get to know that someone is from North India. Autowalas charge us higher prices, and people call us ‘these Hindi people.’ We’ve been addressed as Hindi people many times,” the woman said.
“I love this city, absolutely, and would want to visit again, but the fact that when they see outsiders, they behave differently with you. Especially when Bengaluru is what it is because of North Indians coming here to a large extent. And still, people have a hard time accepting it,” she added
