Mangaluru, Feb 19: Tulu Koota of St Aloysius College (Autonomous) in association with Karnataka Tulu Sahitya Academy organised a day-long State Level Tulu Cultural Fest ‘Tulu Parba’ on Monday, February 18 at LCRI Hall.

The chief guest on the occasion, A C Bhandary congratulated the Tulu Koota members for their innovative programme for the promotion of Tulu language and culture.
