unlike our tamil brothers in bangalore, we kannadigas and kannada speaking castes have never been treated as outsiders in tamilnadu.There are kannada speaking mla"s and MPs. Tamilnadu minister for Khadi and Womens development E.RAMACHANDRA GOWDA, IS A KANNADA SPEAKER. COONOOR, OOTY, GUDALUR ASSEMBLY CONSTITUENCIES AND NILGIRIS PARLIAMENTARY CONSTITUENCY HAVE ALWAYS RETURNED KANNADA SPEAKING CANDIDATES, GUGAI CONSTITUENCY IN SALEM ,METTUPALAYAM IN COIMBATORE DIST, ARUPPUKOTTAI, ALL HAVE RETURNED KANNADA SPEAKING CANDIDATES. THE ACTIVITIES OF THE GUNDAS OF KRV AND VATAL PUT ALL KANNADA SPEAKERS TO SHAME.THEY HAVE ONLY THEIR POLITICAL INTERESTS IN MIND AND NOT THE WELFARE OF ALL KANNADA SPEAKERS.ALL RIGHT THINKING KANNADIGAS STOP ENCOURAGING THESE GOONDAS, FOR THEY WILL TARGET TULU, KONKANI NEXT AND MARATHI SPEAKERS NEXT WHICH IS VERY DAMAGING TO OUR FEDERAL SET UP.

Tamils are also safer in Karnataka. They are enjoying much more freedom in Karnataka to run their schools,movies,channels, their own colonies. Nothing like that can be said about Kannadigas in Tamilnadu. They live like Tamilians and one cannot distinguis them there whereas here you can easily make out a Tamil locality(most likely a slum). And they lobby like no others can.They see to that any oppurtunity they see is passed on to thier community and keep a closed loop. They act a mafia.

Bangalore has only 38% kannadigas, 62% outsiders, Bangalore is no more a kannadiga city.

hi Rationalist,
Tamils also safe in KN??? are u kidding. You dont dream in day. Come and see TN and ask the other community people rather it may be KN people or telugu or malaylam or even muslims anybody...... we never thought they are separate. U dont say they have to live like tamil...there is nothing like that..
U see in chennail itself how many telgu clubs, malayam clubs... at any cost we never ever distrubed them, unlike you KN are really hurting our Bharath mother.... having separate flag, independence day...hurting other community peoples.... u all have to feel shame abt urself...

Most of the times I have seen they act very partially. Howmuch ever we think all are same, they do'nt respond that way. They try to distinguish people by language.

Mr.Cooumare,
The way you are saying I see it as credit to Kannadigas living their rather to Tamils.It is simply the way Kannadigas are flowing with the main stream rather than making a way of their own.

Your words have no reality. The areas mentioned above all are kannada dominated. They only speak in kannada. Its only the tamils who looks like minorities over there. Dont justify yourself with all possitives. Kannadigas in TN speak only kannada. They speak kannada in public, not just in home. No tamil is opposing it. Actually they are calm going in all walks of life (except a few who lives in slums). They want to be indigenous by speaking tamil in their own place. Whats wrong in it. Many people twist their protest towards hindi-insertion for their joy to abuse tamils. Hindi is assigned as a national language, but that doesnt mean everyone in India in every city must speak hindi. Will these hindi guys study any south indian language even for fun? be it kannada or telugu. Why is this hype. When cornered by other majorities they might outburst. I am an outsider in TN (from AP).
