Karnataka to Adopt Tulu as Second Additional Administrative Language in Two Districts

The state government of Karnataka announced that Tulu will be recognized as the second additional administrative language in two of its districts. This decision aims to strengthen the use of the regional language in official communications and public services within the selected areas. By granting Tulu official status alongside Kannada, authorities intend to facilitate better interaction between government offices and the local Tulu-speaking population. The move reflects the government's broader policy to promote linguistic diversity and preserve cultural heritage. Implementation details, including the specific districts and timeline, are expected to be communicated by the state administration in the coming weeks.
