    WE ARE TULUVAS, NOT KANNADIGAS.
    KANNADIGAS ARE NOT TULUVAS, AND THE SAME IS VICE VERSA.
    OUR ANCESTORS MIGRATED TO MAHARASHTRA WHEN KARNATAKA STATE DIDNT EXIST.
    JAI TULU NADU, JAI MAHARASTRA.

    Please note, there is nothing known as Tulu Kannadigas. Either you are a Tuluva or you are a Kannadiga.

    Tuluvas Must be proud to be Tuluvas rather than claiming Tulu-Kannadigas.
