The BIAL earlier said that they are aiming to promote local culture in Bengaluru airport as people from across the globe, board and deboard from KIA. It also said that the airport's digital displays will prioritise the Kannada language. “BLR Airport will use digital media to display information about the event and engage with passengers through on-ground activities to promote the Kannada language,” the statement added.
