It is a great step indeed. Mr. Yediyurappa, Karnataka CM has taken the
bold initiative to unveil the statue of Tiruvalluvar in Blore 2 days back.
As you can see it was blocked because of the petty reasons of the ruling class
for the last 18 years... Now Mr. Karunanidhi was invited and both of them
together unveiled the statue, eventhough there were some minor protests.
As a malayalee, I think my state has a lot to learn from these things.
Since Malayalam is a language which is derived from Sanskrit and Tamil,
Kerala has so much close relationship with Tamil Nadu... But in Kerala,
we can see that no one want to care about Tamil nadu or its people in
any point of time. They just know how to bash them...
1. Kerala never teaches Tamil in any of the schools, eventhough Malayalam
was derived mainly from the old Tamil.
2. Irrespective of innumerable Rivers, Kerala depends Tamil Nadu for water
in case monsoon fails.
3. Depends heavily on Tamil Nadu for vegetables and other products eventhough
Kerala has a lot of producive land for agriculture.
Eventhough linguistic fundamentalism is there in TamilNadu, Kerala has got
so much dependence with Tamil Nadu. It is high time for the state to respect
the tamil people and their culture, so that internally it is they themself is
being honoured...
Mr. Yediyurappa shows the real path. I hope it will bring new bridges in the
decades old rivalry between the two states over cauvery issues...

Hey i really don't believe unveiling a statue will bring back tamilians and kannadigas any closer. I personally hate my tamil manager who inspite of knowing that i am a kannadiga conducts team meetings in Tamil mixed English in an MNC environment. Also during recruitments, it is the tamilians who are given priority in jobs as the HRs and the persons conduting interviews are all mostly tamils. If you say it's not sure why then in my team of 15 members there are only 2 kannadigas, 1 northie and rest are all tamils...
And u ppl keep boasting about unity in diversity and such bullshit during Independance day
