This demand was reiterated in 1923 and on 25th February 1935 telegrams were sent to the Viceroy to bring under one administration all Kannada speaking areas.

Famous quotes containing the word resolution:

    Compared to football, baseball is almost an Oriental game, minimizing individual stardom, requiring a wide range of aggressive and defensive skills, and filled with long periods of inaction and irresolution. It has no time limitations. Football, on the other hand, has immediate goals, resolution on every single play, and a lot of violence—itself a highlight. It has clearly distinguishable hierarchies: heroes and drones.
