Tulu which is one among the five Dravidian languages and has no State for itself.

Under the Karnataka State, the growth of Tulu has been curtailed and the extensive use of Kannada has stunted the growth of Tulu.

I support Tulu as a langauge that need protection from the kanadigas.

the jews were always an oppressed community in all parts of very powerful xtian europe. still they kept tehir hebrew language alive all on their own despite all the odds. tulu people face no such odds. if you love your language enough, you don't need state help.

Thats the same case with konkani, coorgi as well. But i believe and feel sorry that the game has been lost. Both good and bad thing is these communities did not have a vattal nagaraj figure to gain headline space :(
