ನಮ್ಮಲ್ಲಿ ಯುವ ಸಾಕ್ಷರತೆಯ ಲೆಕ್ಕವಿಲ್ಲ, ಆದರೆ ೨೦೨೨ರ ಕಲಿಕೆಯ ಅಳತೆಯೊಟ್ಟುದಲ್ಲಿ ಕರ್ನಾಟಕದ ಜಿಲ್ಲೆಗಳ ಸ್ಥಿತಿಗತಿಗಳು ನಕ್ಷೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ತೋರಿಸಲಾಗಿದೆ. We do not have youth literacy data, but this is how Karnataka fares in Education Index (2022). @EduMinOfIndia @CMofKarnataka focus on Kalyana Karnataka.
I made this infographic to show that you can't really ascribe religious or cultural explanations for why certain regions fall behind on human capital development. All the Muslim Central Asian countries and Iran are at 99-100% youth literacy. Iran and the Islamic revolutionaries invested aggressively in expanding educational opportunities to its entire population (including a large portion of which were nomadic herders). The Soviet revolutionaries in Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan also invested aggressively in expanding educational opportunities to the entire population (which also included a large number of nomadic herders). There are zero religious and cultural explanations for why Pakistan is lagging on this front other that its feudal elites monopolize a large share of its fiscal resources for its pet projects. Taliban controlled Afghanistan should really be the only exception.

ಕರ್ನಾಟಕದ ಏಕೀಕರಣ ನಂತರ ಇಲ್ಲಿಯವರೆಗಿನ ನಮ್ಮ ಯಾವುದೇ ರಾಜ್ಯ ಸರ್ಕಾರಗಳು ಈ ನಾಡಿನ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ನಿಜವಾಗಿಯೂ ಕಾಳಜಿ ವಹಿಸಿಲ್ಲ. ಈ ಜಿಲ್ಲೆಗಳ ಏಳಿಗೆಯಾದಾಗ ಮಾತ್ರ ಕರ್ನಾಟಕವು ಪ್ರಗತಿ ಹೊಂದಲು ಸಾಧ್ಯ. ಇವುಗಳನ್ನು ಹಸಿರುಮಯವಾಗಿಸುವ ಕೆಲಸ ಈಗಲೇ ಮುನ್ನಡೆಸಬೇಕು9!

South: highest in the Deccan interior (Yadgir 92, Raichur 90, Bhupalpally 90). Tamil Nadu's median is 23 and Kerala's is 15.

Notice how it overlaps both the Marathwada (in Maharashtra) and Kalyana Karnataka (in Karnataka) regions, which are least developed today. Nizams treated people outside their heartlands worse than second class citizens. Introduced evils like Jagirdari system & left them to rot.

The initial reaction to the statevstate was how TN absolutely defeats everyone But if you make an Olympic style medal standing of all the 68 Metrics, on which the states are rated, the story changes slightly. Check it out on statevstate.Bharatrajya.com

Only Indus Valley & Egypt trace all the way back to the left edge. IVC's exonym among Sumerians was "Meluhha" (𒈨𒈛𒄩) -mel means up/upper in Proto-Dravidian. It translated to "Upper Place" -Mele is still used in Kannada and name Karnataka also translates to "elevated land".

Not a single city in Karnataka with a metro outside Bengaluru! Maharashtra has three. Nagpur, Pune and Mumbai. By now Hubballi-Dharawada, Mysuru and Mangaluru should have been Pune/Nagpur sized cities and had metros.
Thirty years ago Pune and Coimbatore were comparable cities. Painful to see how far behind Coimbatore is now. Successive TN govts have killed TN cities.

We will steal your taxes We will reduce your representation We will eat your jobs by foulplay We will not respect your language We will impose our language We will badmouth your city 24*7 We will decide who is a nationalist Now we will also tell you who built your city
Who built Bengaluru? Kannadigas or migrants from the rest of India? This debate keeps getting uglier, so I decided to look at the history and the numbers. Here’s what I found:

For fun personal projects, I replace identifiers and variables with Kannada 🙃
Honest question. People whose first language isn’t English… how do they code? Do Germans code in German? Do Japanese developers code in Japanese?

Kalaburagi is a Kannada city like Bengaluru. And people of Kalaburagi have Bengaluru as their de facto and de jure capital. Karnataka should decide how and where it spends its money.
Replying to @shiv223
Why should Bangaloreans fund people in Kalaburagi? Slippery slope

This is the best version. Observe the color contrast. Invokes a very natural feel like ಅರಿಶಿನ and ಕುಂಕುಮ.
This is the new flag proposed to be made official flag of Karnataka. What's your opinion on this.

This is only a Bengaluru problem btw and we need to save it from further dilution. Bengaluru Kannada dialect needs to thrive not vanish or get extremely diluted.
As a North Indian trying to learn Kannada, I make an effort to use local words at restaurants. Mosrubajji has become raita,, even Kannadigas in kannada restaurants don't use it anymore,, servers look at me in horror when I ask for mosrubajji and they correct me "ohh raita na?? 🤦

"Sometimes, even the strongest faith struggles under the weight of unanswered prayers." 🔥✍️
At some point, you get tired. Not because you've stopped believing in God, but because you're human, and sometimes, even the strongest faith struggles under the weight of unanswered prayers.

Karnataka alone needs 7-8 corridors crossing its top 6 cities with Hubli, Hassan, Shivmogga emerging as key junctions. @nitin_gadkari
