[Falcon Feline @ThetaOwner]

It mentions itself that Tulunadu was an independent land lmao

[തുളു രാജ്യൊ /तुळु राज्य @drsudhirn]

In karnataka kannada is just a regional language like Tulu & kodava then why only kannada is administrative language and why state govt examinations are conducted only in kannada & english ?

[Dileepa K @dileepa_k17]

To their credit, Maharashtra did not rename the Kannad taluk to something else.
Look at Tulunad & how it got misnamed initially as South Canara & then later as Dakshina Kannada.

Like Kotiyoor, even Dharmasthala of Tulunad is a Holy place. Kindly don't throw your inner wears on the river banks of Nethravathi 🙏✨
Let's maintain the sanctity of our sacred places and keep our rivers clean.

[Everyday തᤲളᤲ™ @everyday_tulu]

We are Tuluvas. We have waited long enough.
Our language, culture, history, and identity deserve recognition and representation.
The demand for Tulunad State is not fading—it is growing stronger with every generation.

Nethravathi is Tulunad's lifeline, not BLR's Industrial water bank.
The Ettinahole Project ruining our river, our farmers, and our future. Stop diverting Nethravathi's waters to meet the growing demands of BLR while Tulunad bears the cost. Save Tulunad.

Then stop coming to Tulunad 😂

If you can 👍🏼

If not then continue being high on illusion 😂

[mangalore tiles @dumbupole]

Not a single Tulunad fellow wants to go to Kochi, that's not even in our top 10 cities of preference bro.

Lakhs of Malayalis come to Mangalore for education, healthcare and jobs.

This alone reveals a lot about Kochi.😭

This is how Tuluvas of the 17th century looked. ⚔️

Beyond the grand empires, the history of Tulu Nadu was written by everyday village protectors who stood their ground to defend their homelands. This beautifully preserved Bantagall (Hero Stone) offers an unvarnished mirror into that defensive martial culture.

>Crucially, this unnamed warrior was a direct contemporary of the legendary twin folk heroes, Kanta Bare and Booda Bare—who served as the supreme military anchors for the Mulki Seeme side. >

He lived and fought in the exact same era of exhausting territorial border wars triggered by the collapse of the Vijayanagara Empire. When the Choutas of Puttige Seeme launched aggressive expansion campaigns, it was rapid-response militias on the Mulki side that held the line, turning frontiers into impenetrable defensive zones to successfully protect their borders. This is the exact crucible where elite commanders across community lines—both Bunt and Billawa—trained in regional Garadis and stood shoulder-to-shoulder.

Look closely at the tactical combat load out carved into the stone, engineered perfectly for high agility in the humid, rugged coastal belt:

🔸 The Patti: A unique, reinforced structural headpiece signaling elite vanguard status.
🔸 The Paricha: A compact, low-profile circular shield held firmly at the waist, optimized for rapid close-quarters parrying during intense jungle skirmishes.
🔸 Agile Attire: Minimalist torso gear to prioritize temperature control and maximum combat acceleration.

Today, the fresh red paint applied to the shield by local villagers shows a beautiful cultural reality: centuries after the border lines went cold, the community still worships this defender as an ancestral guardian spirit (Karana or Daiva), completely transcending modern social boundaries.

While these skirmishes ultimately left regional principalities exhausted and vulnerable to larger outside empires like the Keladi Nayakas later on, the fierce spirit of these local soil protectors remains undeniable. Thousands of these priceless historical markers are currently weathering away neglected in our fields. It’s time to document, protect, and honor them.

Both Tulunad districts Udupi and Kudla (Mangaluru) tops the 12th exam in Karnataka.

English medium students show higher pass rate, when compared with Kannada Medium students🤔

Olle hypocrisy nimdhu.

[Vije @vijeshetty]

@ShyamSPrasad Shivappa Nayaka himself is an invader to Tulunad, who came to expand his dynasty.

Stop spreading hate and fake history.

[Payoj Prabhu Bangāḍikumēr🇮🇳 @PFKodial]

A 1st century CE terracotta trade seal mentions a west-coast road. The stretch of coast above Chera and below Konkana used to be called Tuḷu (Taulava).

The Call that Built a Language: LEPPU 🗣️🧬🌊

They told us Tulu was "regional." This map proves it is the Vocal Infrastructure of Europe. 🗺️⚓️

In #Tulunadu,to call is to Leppu .This is the Phonetic DNA behind the English lip
We didn't just give them words; we named their anatomy
