Dear Samir, Karnataka is not the old kingdom of Mysore. Nov.01 marks the day the old Mysore, part of Nizam's Hyderabad state, part of Bombay Presidency and, I think, part of travancore kingdom were fused to form a new state. People of Kolar and Chitradurga still speak telegu as their mother tongue and quite a few people in Belgaum and Dharwad districts speak Marathi as proof of their earlier connections. Tipu Sultan held sway over South Kanara[ Mangalore,udipi are] but the Wodeyars were mostly content with Mysore and Bangalore districts of the present day Karnataka. The Kodavas of Coorg were hardly a part of Mysore. > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Karnataka --- our neighboring state --- (I think > earlier Mysore) was formed today November 1. > Today is Karnataka Rajyotsava day. Karnataka especially Bangalore > leads India in its new rejunevation leading the way in the IT > field. ......................................... The Rajyotsav is close to Dushera and Diwali. It is a happy occasion. Viva Miguel
