Visualising Karnataka. ಚುಕ್ಕೆ by ಚುಕ್ಕೆ.

ನಮ್ಮಲ್ಲಿ ಯುವ ಸಾಕ್ಷರತೆಯ ಲೆಕ್ಕವಿಲ್ಲ, ಆದರೆ ೨೦೨೨ರ ಕಲಿಕೆಯ ಅಳತೆಯೊಟ್ಟುದಲ್ಲಿ ಕರ್ನಾಟಕದ ಜಿಲ್ಲೆಗಳ ಸ್ಥಿತಿಗತಿಗಳು ನಕ್ಷೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ತೋರಿಸಲಾಗಿದೆ.

We do not have youth literacy data, but this is how Karnataka fares in Education Index (2022). @EduMinOfIndia @CMofKarnataka focus on Kalyana Karnataka.

I made this infographic to show that you can't really ascribe religious or cultural explanations for why certain regions fall behind on human capital development. All the Muslim Central Asian countries and Iran are at 99-100% youth literacy.

Iran and the Islamic revolutionaries invested aggressively in expanding educational opportunities to its entire population (including a large portion of which were nomadic herders).

The Soviet revolutionaries in Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan also invested aggressively in expanding educational opportunities to the entire population (which also included a large number of nomadic herders).

There are zero religious and cultural explanations for why Pakistan is lagging on this front other that its feudal elites monopolize a large share of its fiscal resources for its pet projects.

Taliban controlled Afghanistan should really be the only exception.

ರೈಲು ರಾಜ್ಯದ ವಿಷಯವಾಗಿರಬೇಕು. ಕನಿಷ್ಠ ಭಾರತೀಯ ರೈಲ್ವೆ ಜೊತೆಗೆ ತನ್ನದೇ ಆದ ವಿಭಾಗವಾಗಿರಬೇಕು. ಕರ್ನಾಟಕದಲ್ಲಿ ಅಂತರ-ಜಿಲ್ಲಾ ಸಂಪರ್ಕವನ್ನು ಸೃಷ್ಟಿಸುವಲ್ಲಿ ಐ.ಆರ್. ವಿಫಲವಾಗಿದೆ ಮತ್ತು ಕರ್ನಾಟಕವು ಬಸ್‌ಗಳನ್ನು ಮಾತ್ರ ಅವಲಂಬಿಸಲು ಸಾಧ್ಯವಿಲ್ಲ.

ಐ.ಆರ್. ಅಂತರ-ರಾಜ್ಯದ ಅಂತರ-ಕಾರ್ಯನಿರ್ವಹಣೆ ಮತ್ತು ದೂರದ ಸೇವೆಗಳಿಗೆ ಮಾತ್ರ ಇರಬೇಕು.

The pro-Kannada organisation has opposed Railway department's decision to conduct the Goods Train Manager promotion exam in Karnataka only in English and Hindi

It has called the move an attack on the rights of Kannada-speaking employees, demanding that Kannada be included as an exam medium or that the test be postponed.

@VarshiniRamu & @prathibhatweets with details.

[Kannada Pixels @KannadaPixels]

@LalitAditya1212 You also clearly mentioned "Descendants of Mr Kempegowda" sounds more like a personal vendetta against Kannada culture than actually targetting the issue. And how are they my brethren when I do not use any of those terms. Practice what you preach by editing this tweet.

[Kannada Pixels @KannadaPixels]

@mr_dr_karadi This is also true

[Kannada Pixels @KannadaPixels]

ಕರ್ನಾಟಕದಲ್ಲಿ, ನಿರ್ದಿಷ್ಟವಾಗಿ ಉತ್ತರ ಕರ್ನಾಟಕದಲ್ಲಿ ಇಷ್ಟು ನದಿಗಳು, ಬಯಲು ಪ್ರದೇಶಗಳು ಇದ್ದರು ಸಹ ಇವ್ರು ನಮ್ಮ ಬೆಂಗಳೂರಿನ ಸುತ್ತ ಮುತ್ತ ಅರಣ್ಯ ಕಡೆವುದುನ್ನು ಬಿಟ್ಟು ಬೆರೆಕೆಡೆ ತಮ್ಮ ಡೇಟಾ ಸೆಂಟರ್ಗಳು ಸ್ಥಾಪಿಸೋಕ್ಕೆ ಏನು ತೊಂದರೆ?

83,500 arecanut trees, 87,900 coconut trees, 12,500 Mango trees, are going to be axed with acres of ragi, red gram, horse gram, corn, and groundnut to be lost for an AI township.

[Kannada Pixels @KannadaPixels]

@mr_dr_karadi The problem lies within the way those are built. For example instead of metro kalaburagi could use buses or BRTS. Instead of expensive glass building city, a small modern township with basic urban planning and utilities will work better for tier 2 and 3 cities.

[Kannada Pixels @KannadaPixels]

@mr_dr_karadi build and they'll come

ನನ್ನ ಉತ್ತರ ಭಾರತದ ಒಬ್ಬ ಸಹಪಾಠಿ ಸಹ ಇದೆ ಹೇಳ್ದ. ನಮ್ಮ ರಾಜ್ಯದ ಈಗಿನ ವ್ಯವಸ್ಥೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಅವನಿಗೆ ಕನ್ನಡ ಕಲಿಯುವ ಅವಶಕತೆವೇನು ಇಲ್ಲ. ಅವರಾಗಿ ಅವರು ಯಾವತ್ತೂ ಕಲಿಯೋದಿಲ್ಲ ಎಂದು ನಮಗೆ ಚೆನ್ನಾಗಿ ಗೊತ್ತಿರ ವಿಷಯ. ನಾವೇ ಅವರಿಗೆ ಸ್ವಾಭಾವಿಕವಾಗಿ ಕನ್ನಡ ಕಲಿಯುವ ವ್ಯವಸ್ಥೆಯನ್ನು ನಿರ್ಮಿಸಬೇಕಾಗಿದೆ.

[Kannada Pixels @KannadaPixels]

ವಲಸೆಗಾರರ ತಪ್ಪಿಲ್ಲ.. ಕನಿಷ್ಠ ಪೂರ್ತಿ ತಪ್ಪು ಅವರದಲ್ಲ. ನಮ್ಮ ಸರ್ಕಾರದ ಮೂರ್ಖತನದಿಂದ ನಾವು ಕಷ್ಟ ಅನುಭವಿಸುತ್ತಾಯಿದೀವಿ. ಇಷ್ಟು ವರ್ಷಗಳ ಕಾಲ ನಂತರ, ಜರ್ಮನಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಜರ್ಮನ್ ಹಾಗೆ ವಲಸೆಗಾರರಿಗೆ ಕನ್ನಡವು ಕರ್ನಾಟಕದಲ್ಲಿ ಕಡ್ಡಾಯ ಮಾಡುವ ನಿಯಮ ತರಬೇಕಾಗಿತ್ತು.

My review of BLR after a few months here

Pros:

- Good weather
- Language issues not as much as portrayed
- Amazing variety of food
- Greenery in quite some parts
- Heart of South India; most places in TN, Kerala, Karnataka and southern parts of Andhra can be reached in a few hours
- Delicious thatte idli in older hotels
- Amazing Carnatic music culture for a person like me. They even play Carnatic instrumental songs in the mornings in Majestic metro station.

Cons:

- Traffic is really bad
- Roads are horrible in certain places
- Auto drivers are rude, rapido ones are better
- Looting culture
- Sambar
- Don't expect North India level chaat options here
- As long as you stay near a metro, it's fine, otherwise it's hell. Accessing Marathahalli and such areas is quite problematic.

@Lavanya_Gupta_ Ikr, hope migrants assimilate into Kannada culture to keep this level of civic sense intact and make it even better.

@Vijaykarnataka ಅತಿವೇಗ ರೈಲು ✅
ಹೈಸ್ಪೀಡ್ ರೈಲು ❌

[Kannada Pixels @KannadaPixels]

@Lavanya_Gupta_ Migrants love Kannada culture and cuisine, but do not want to keep it intact by assimilating into it.

[Kannada Pixels @KannadaPixels]

@abhispake It's funny how the migrants enjoy the Kannada culture but don't want to keep intact by assimilating into it.

[Kannada Pixels @KannadaPixels]

Let's just shut up and make every district of Karnataka great together.

My view

[Kannada Pixels @KannadaPixels]

OH MY GOD. I'm so sick of "Bengaluru this Bengaluru that". "Peak Bengaluru" "Bengaluru weather so good..." "Bengaluru weather so bad..." "Bengaluru people good/bad.." posts that it is making me go crazy. It is time to clean my feed and align it with Karnataka's interests.

Missed labelling Sikkim and Puducherry. It is 39% and 10% respectively.

2026 FIFA World Cup is set to kick-off. What percentages of total searches involving FIFA World Cup and Cricket are FIFA World Cup over the last 30 days?

[Kannada Pixels @KannadaPixels]

@calloftiger @ravikeerthi22 But Chikkamagaluru to Udupi via Sringeri is already proposed why not connect shivamogga to this line at Sringeri junction and use this to reach Mangalore via udupi?

[Kannada Pixels @KannadaPixels]

@IndianUrbanist For centuries it has been Kannada culture being updated in Bengaluru* but this is the first time we have non-kannada outsiders behaving totally alien to the Kannada culture. That too copying San Francisco and trying hard to be them is not even a real culture, it is cringe.
