Badiyadka: “Tulu Nadu has played a vital role in the history in terms of humanity and brotherhood. Everyone had a feeling of being Tuluvas. But today that mind set has been fallen down,” said Puttur MLA Shakunthala Shetty.

After inaugurating the Badiyadka Vishwa Tuluvere Aayano office at Badiyadka Gulf complex, on Thursday she said that Tuluvere Aayano will help the people to rebuild the fallen mind set of being Tuluvas.

“Office has been inaugurated on ‘Sona’ new moon. Let this light help regain its bygone glory. Tuluvere Aayano should succeed in bringing up Tulu language,” she said.

Former MLA Adva C H Kunhimbu said that Tulu Aayano inspired him to form Keral Tulu Academy. Tulu has a historical background. Many researches should be done on Tulu by Tulu Ayano.

Vishwa Tuluvere Aayano Convener Mahin Kelot, Kunjar Mohammad Haji, Babu Pachlampare, KK Swami Kripa, S N Mayya, Tulu Academy Member Chandrahas Rai Peradalagutthu and others were present.
