Look at this futile efforts to throw out ppl from Bangalore on the net. The world is getting global... like there are so many outsiders as you call "northies" in bangalore, so are the kannadigas/ tamilians/ marathis/ sindhis in the US. Do you call to throw out Kannadigas/ tamilians etc from the US, Middle-east or south east asia? And if you look at the Bangalore crime rate, more than 70% of the convicts are indigeneous ppl. Check your basics before you claim! Karnataka gov check on getting reservation in private cos will never work, it will so away the companies from Bangalore. And it is not tough process to do. The MNC just need a nod and they are away.

That is because the Kannadigas in the US respect the US and their people. They do not abuse the hosts like you are doing now. Bangalore and Karnataka produce enough engineers to prevent the rest of you from working here. It's just that we're playing the fair game

I know for a fact Kannadigas are peace loving people. But they have started to show it otherwise - for example KRV - how they behaved in Rajkumars death or with the Belgaum Mayor. Is it an example of peace loving ppl. If the KRV virus gets into the US, you will definitely have a hard time. The result? You know it.
Also let me remind you Kannadigas who are not related with the IT sector are making money from the house rents the outsiders provide. They are not staying for free - they pay tax and house rents.

To add... bangalore and karnataka produce enough engineers but the quality engineers produced in bangalore are always in question. like bangalore university is a question mark... so are many engg colleges mushrooming in every nook and corner of the state. Its funny to see that in karnataka anybody and everybody can become an engineer if he/she wants. It is depressing to see that so many students fall into this trap of low grade education. Most of the educational insts ask for exorbitantly high fees with poor facilities.
1.Bangalore has the impeccable record of highest growth within a span of 20 years
2. Bangalore has the highest number of pubs in Asia .
3. Bangalore has the highest number of cigarette smokers in India .
4. Bangalore has the highest number of software companies in India -212,followed by Hyderabad - 108, Pune - 97. Hence called the silicon valley of India
5. Bangalore has 21 engineering colleges, which is the highest in the world in a given city. Bangalore university has 57 Engineering colleges affiliated to it,which is the highest in the world.
6. Bangalore is the only city in the world to have the commercial and the defence airport operating from the same strip.
7. Bangalore has the highest number of public sectors and government organizations in India .
8. Bangalore university has the highest number of students going abroad for higher studies, snatching the first place from IIT-Kanpur.
9. Bangalore is truely a cosmopolitan city . It has only 33% Kannadigas among it's inhabitants, around 35% are Tamilians,19 % Telugu-speaking Andhrites, 10% Keralite Malayalis, 8% Europeans/ Anglo-Indians, and 6% a mixture of all other races. There are still several localities , where only Tamil is taught, spoken & understood.This, despite Vattal Nagaraj & Kannada Rakshan Vedike agitations.
10. Bangalore police has the reputation of being second best in India after Delhi.
Its their state who are we to debate on their place and natural right. As the citizens of the land they have to be given preference and share of employment and no doubt about.
Let the KA Govt and Cos decide on the %. Let them appoint a commission for enforcing this percentage. After all has the largest no of proffessional colleges and they would rightfully have the qualified candidates for the post.
Lets not debate what how it has to be done in their place first. Will we allow some immigrant to dictate terms to us ??
There is big north indian conspiracy to promote wedge between Tamils and Kannadigas. There is Historic bond between Tamils and Kannadigas and these jealous northern people cannot stand it. When they are plundering TN and Karnataka of taxes why can't they link all the rivers like Ganges with cauvery? That will solve water problem and the cause of wedge between Tamils and Kannadigas once for all. These guys cannot us propering and having peace. It is time kannadigas and Tamils see through this consipracy.

That is what I say conspiracy. You bhaiyyas in UP and Bihar are dying of flood. If part of the water can be diverted to south it will solve water problem for ever. No cauvery problem and no wedge between Tamils and Kannadigas. Tamils and Kannadigas share historic brotherly relationship
RE:RE:Northern conspiracy to promote wedge between Tamils and Kannadigas

If there is no cauvery problem then there is no conspiracy also. And who has stopped you to connect the rivers. But it requires time , money , effort and patience. Its not like that you will write a stupid comment and you will get a reply. India needs sensible and thinking citizens. So be smart. Never give any ear to what these politicians say..

As it is, we have a major row between Hindus & Muslims in this country. Add to that Northies-Sounthies, Tamils-K'digas, Marathis-K'digas, Malabaris-Tamils, and our Caste Wars ...

We are learned people. This beauthiful country belongs to everone of us. Why to fight for it? So many cultures , so much to learn. Being from UP , I love everything about south india. whether it is food , culture, movies.
We should be happy that India is growing and Karnataka government has taken a good action. But some people are writing foolish statements.

60% OF Indians do not speak Hindi. When you go to France you learn French. When you go to Delhi, we speak Hindi. When you come to Karnataka, speak Kannada (i'm not talking about tourists, but people who have made Karnataka their home). That way you'll not only learn a new language but will also be able to blend better with the locals. Have mutual respect.

menon? Mallu? the born slaves. Be it arab sheiks or northies. Do you guys have any self respect? You guys will do anything for rice bowl wich you dont get in your place anyway.
These "Bhaiyyas" from UP, Bihar have already destroyed Mumbai. They are now repeating the story in Bangalore. First step would be an official ban on Hindi and talk back in Kannada or Tamil when someone speaks to you in Hindi. Reemoving Hindi from schoold and all the boards. Bahaiyyas cannot learn any other language apart from Hindi ( that too only to "speak" NOT read or write) and they will leave Bangalore on their own.
This is what is being done in Madras with success.

Hindi may be National language but not mandatory for all to know it . and When You cannot impose Hindi in the sate of Maharashtra where both have the script barowed from Devanagari.Why you northys want to take advantage of the lang to be Hindi so that it suits their conveniences. If they are in South India They got to put thir heart to learn local languages. it applies to other who migrate for work

Hindi is not a national language. It is used in few states(in north india), thats all. English is our national language.
Always these hindi ppl use bad words. It is because they don't have good culture.

Don't forget Hindi is our national language and it is one of the most spoken language of the world, you should be proud of it. If this is the matter then close all your offices in New Delhi.Dethrone all the ministers who are sitting in the government and from south, don't forget Delhi is the capital of India not Bangalore. What is there to be proud of in Bangalore apart from IT industry and few esteemed govt. departments. Don't forget Mumbai & Delhi are the oldest business hubs of India and Bangalore is still in its childhood stage.These kind of comments will leave you nowhere and depicts your sick mentality.

Because you people are not intelligent enough to fill in the knowledge workers that Bangalore needs.
Bangalore and Karnataka have always been kind to immigrants - be it for education, employment or medical treatment. It's perhaps the only state where the locals speak your language rather than you trying to pick up some Kannada. Please do not get abuse your hosts - we have treated our guests well. Only minority in Bangalore are now Kannadigas (30% or so) - this is a clear testimony of our hospitality.
