Demand For A Separate Tulunadu State
The Tuluvas of Southern India are a separate culture from the Kannadigas within India. From India's independence and following the reorganization of states, the Tuluvas had been demanding official language status for Tulu and a separate state for themselves comprising the Udupi and South Canara Districts of Karnataka State and Kasargod District of Kerala State. This demand has grown weakened in recent years. Several organizations like the Tulu Rajya Horata Samiti have taken up the cause of the Tuluvas.

Therefore, if one sibling has already filled a part, such as the good child, other siblings may feel they have to find other parts to play, such as rebellious child, academic child, athletic child, social child, and so on.”
—Jane Nelson (20th century)
