Advertising Advertising

I am finding products in Kerala , being advertised and packed in foreign languages. for example in arabic.

I fear this will create undue polarisation among societies, as the official language for communication is english or malayalam.
if we start using niche languages I feel we are alienating people who do not read the same.

Is using foreign language along with English and Malayalam an offence? Is it banned by the government.
