Regarding Violence, all these years Tamilnadu has always taken a legal way of fighting whereas constantly Tamils and their properties were attacked in KN. There should be a limit. Even this time, Tamilnadu never reacted first (mind Yediyurappa started it ahead of elections in KN) when KN opposed the drinking water project for flourosis affected Dharmapuri and Krishnagiri district people (this project will not affect KN in any way and it was allowed in exchange with Bangalore water supply project in 1998). But it is only after tamils were attacked again in Bangalore. I am not supporting goons on both sides but a mutual understanding in this issue can be achieved only when minorities in any state are allowed to live peacefully.
