Udupi, Sep 8: People of Dakshina Kannada and Udupi districts of coastal Karnataka should treat Kannada as their mother and Tulu as their father, said Vishwesha Tirtha Swami of Paryaya Pejawar Mutt.

seerHe was speaking after welcoming a chariot (ratha) spreading awareness on the Vishwa Tuluvere Aayano' (World Tulu Conference) to be held at Badiadka near Kasaragod from December 9 to 13. He later flagged off the chariot near Rajangana.

Stating that harmony among all languages goes a long way in protecting culture, the seer urged the people of twin districts to love and respect both Kannada and Tulu equally.

The seer said that everyone should be proud of their language. But people should shun a parochial approach on the issue. “It is essential that all languages coexist peacefully with one another,” he said.

The seer said that Kannada is the administrative language of Karnataka. But Tulu is considered the lingua franca of Tulunadu, comprising Udupi, Dakshina Kannada and Kasaragod districts.

A wide variety of languages are spoken in Tulunadu, including Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Beary, Konkani, Kundagannada, Aregannada, Havyaka Kannada and Kodava.

Mother, Father.
Mother, Father.
Mother, Father.
Each and everything is a Father or Mother.
But, finally ignore real mother and father.
They end up on roads or old age homes.

Mangaluru, May 8: After continuous pressure on Union government from Karnataka NRI Forum- UAE, the first special flight carrying 180 Kannadigas who stranded at UAE due to Covid-19 pandemic will fly from Dubai to Mangaluru on May 14.

The special flight will take off from Dubai at 4.10 p.m. UAE time to reach Mangaluru at 9.10 pm IST on May 14. Earlier it was reported that the flight will operate on May 12. However, sources of Mangaluru International Airport and Air India today confirmed that first flight will be on May 14.

The state government has directed Dakshina Kannada and Udupi districts authority to quarantine all passengers once they reach.  

All Kannadigas will be given permission to travel back home only after they test negative in Covid test at Dubai airport.

In fact, Karnataka was missing in the list of states to receive special flights when Ministry of External Affairs arranged them to bring stranded Indians at UAE. Special flights were arranged only to Kerala and Tamil Nadu people stranded at UAE in the first stage.

Thanks to Karnataka NRI Forum of UAE which opened helpline (https://uaekannadahelpline.club) to seek assistance to Kannadigas, nearly 2000 Kannadigas have registered for assistance in which 127 pregnant women, 27 senior citizens, 700 people who have lost jobs aftermath of coronavirus sought assistance from NRI forum.

After providing food and shelter to Kannadigas who lost jobs at UAE since March 2020, NRI forum put pressure on both state and Centre to arrange special flights to send them to home. 

The NRI Forum has approached Indian Consulate at UAE and chief minister BS Yediyurappa to evacuate Kannadigas, but got no response. Following this, Karnataka NRI Forum President Praveen Shetty approached Union Minister for Chemicals and Fertilizers DV Sadananda Gowda for help. Gowda immediately responded the call and he spoke to MEE to arrange special flight for Kannadigas as well.

Indian government has promised to arrange special flight to Mangaluru or Bengaluru by next week to bring Kannadigas.

Comparing to other Indian States, Karnataka has the highest number of its people working in UAE. Around 1.25 lakhs Kannadigas are working in UAE in which majority are working classes. Due to Covid-19 pandemic thousands of workers have lost jobs, Mr. Shetty explained.

"Indian government had arranged special flights from US, UK, Singapur and other countries to bring back Indians, but excluded UAE in the list. Actually, lakhs of Indians are working in UAE as labourers and in odd jobs, the government should have given first priority to bring labourers rather rich one", he opined.

"BJP has 27 MPs from Karnataka. We continuously requested all BJP MPs and state government but none of them came to our help. Thanks to Mr Gowda for his timely intervention to bring stranded Kannadigas", Mr Shetty said.
