It is really a shame that people live in fear at places like bangalore ,one of the most top ranked city in india as well as world. It is a really pity of local politicians who do such acts to gain popularity. The senior politicians should stop it and administration must act in strict way so that people think twice before resorting to uncivilized acts. Govt. must educate people its policies so that people are not befooled and rioters are punished examplery.

dear Zandu, If you be in Bangalore u will realise that who is ruling Bangalore. Kannadigara are very polite people, these tamilians / andra / kerela people have taken advantages. If u take BEL / BHL / HAl / GTRE organization they first ask wetehr u r tamil / malayalee. THen only recrit people. How can people bare such things for a long. Kaveri issue some time a reason for such people to drag the matter outside. Nothing else. Same thing is gng in in Maharastra Let people work and keep quite instead of their own state politics. Remember one thing RajaniKanth / Jayalalitha etc are from Kernataka. BEing in Tamilnadu they support tamilians. They are right. Same way Bangalore tamilians let suport Kernataks. No issue for kannidigaras. DOdnt speak abt civilizaton. See the situation in bangaore and speka

yes, just that they dont welcome guests in chennai...this is as much as kannadigas do in blore...its good that both are tasting their own bitter tea.
Rediff you have tried to portrait Karnataka as antinational and criminal figure. OK no problem. You have said in Bangalore 30% are Tamil. That is possible because of Good heart and Broad mind of Kannadigas. But those who come here they do not adopt them self to Karnataka culture. They want to be like water on the lotus leaf and maintain their culture and create trouble to local people. Why Srilanka is burning? Why the problem in Malaysia? Route cause is they never merge with the stream to where they are joining. Soon are later Karnataka is also going to face the same problem. Once LTTE gets its share in Lanka here in India also they want Separate Nation. That is the reason Rajiv Gandhi sent army to Lanka. We all know what is happened later. Do you know how much sympathy flows in Tamilnadu for LTTE? Rediif it is always good to do well in Business. But what path we follow is also important. Do not take this cheap method. Make a deep study and write on Ground realities.

Well said Jaybharat, let the facts & figures come into the review. If anybody observe how many kannadigas are there among the 55lacs, there will be half the population comprising of outsiders which is not there in any state in India. The fight is not against non-kannadigas but to protect the interest of kannadigas & it will certainly mean that all the other non-kannadigas are also covered in that. For this cause every single person in Karnataka should get united & fight combinedly.

The article is full of bull shit and i pitty the editor who allows such distorted facts. There was no f - all riots in bangalore in 1992 . Please do not terrorise people and create division amoung people. I lived in bangalore in 1992 . There was this news that one of the greatest and most loved kannadiga of all times was kidnapped and people were shcked and ran to streets. emotions ran high for a day and returned to normalcy by the afternoon of the next day. I dont thing any thing more than the mumbai rains hit the city . Yes there was a very tense atmosphere . Cars Autos and few shops were belted stonned. Before or after that i dont think there was any harrasment by kannadigas on any sect of the population. I am sure this time the BJP is trying some 3rd rate polictics to instigate. there will be no impact of any sort . unless the media and politicians play dirty. there is no undercurrent or kanndiga movement in karnataka who can mobile more than a few hundered people to all these non violent and intolerant ways. This is one of the most friendly people in this nation . And thats why it continues to be the most sought after city in india when people want relocate to work even NRI's. I have been here as a non kannadiaga. So please dont tarnish these popple like monsters !
Just look at the messages posted here. Are u guys having any links with ISI and in the purpose of dividing India. Otherwise, remove this article immediately. Dont play with the sentiments of people like a cheap TV channel.

If everyone is like you, Its not far away for our nation to become World No1. Who are we to fight for the natural resources? Every natural resoruce has been given by God for human beings and their well being, not for any specific community. Civilized humanity should understand.

Congress is pretty famous for pre-election communal riots! This is the way they get chance to pull on opposition and bring the economy down.
Since the comeback of Congress who campaigned saying "Aam Aadmi ki Party"...India has been going backwards in economy and upwards in inflation(15%). They always do it when they ae back in power.
I really pity the people of our country who liked to be fooled again and again by these goons of Congress...especially the Gandhi family(Remember they are not like Mahatma Gandhi.)
This is one more pre-election gimmick by congress to keep our country divided and obviously poor.
So all communities please be united as Congress with throw more such fireballs at Indians.
Congress is Anti-India. believe it or keep on being fooled.

Everyone knows the problem in Karnataka is initiated by your BJP only. And never try to feel pity on the people of this country, pity on those BJP leaders who made money on purchasing coffins and who said sweet words on Jinnah...!

Inflation upwards 15%? Exagerate firefly and destroy the credibility of your own postings.
All parties have indulged in fanning communalism but BJP and Shiv Sena the most. We see the BJP and its ally, Jayalaithaa is fanning the issue on the Tamil Nadu side and BJP Karnataka unit trying to turn it to votes in Karnataka side.

Keep dreaming and be fooled by Political gimmicks by Congress!
Try to see the core of the issue. Rediff is always writing in favour of congress! Why?
Also see why the issue was arised and by whom? Was there a need by Congress to start the kauveri Issue?..obviously it was going to be opposed.
I for see a plan to divide the country further.
Im not here to increase the credibility of mine or your own postings. Im here to set it straight.
Home loans in BJP reign - 6.75% Now - 12.5% Groceries up by 6.5% Land Prices up by 6% straight. Medicines up by 7%..go and check How come then Congress is AAM AADMI'S PARTY?
And to tell you again... It was not Jinnah and Mahatma Gandhi who were responsible for division.
It was Nehru/family(just like queeen of england) to whom pre-dominion status of independance was offered and agreed on agreement of partition.
Go find who assasinated so many freedom fighters after Independance. Try see who kept Subhash Chandra Bose out of India and why? Find who signed the hanging of Bhagat Singh and allies.
U will understand that the strategies Britishers used is still being used by Congress for their High Commision controlled by foreigners. Guess who?
Why not all other states make Kannidigas to go back to Karnataka and non-Kannidigas forced to get out of Karnataka? If all states purse this policy, we can guaranteee disintegration of India and everybody will be happy. All MORONS.
