He hailed Kannada as queen of all languages which has also acquired the classical status tag which it obviously deserved. 

He recalled the contribution to Kannada literature from great poets like Pampa, Ranna, Janna and Kuvempu. He suggested that the present education system should not be just technical oriented but also focus on art and literature.
