It was a magnificent period after independence in 1947. We were living in independent India. Politically, India had become one nation after 3000 years. However, in a sense it always was one nation, culturally socially and philosophically. All the newly formed Indian states were vibrant with their programs of development after the states reorganized in 1956 based on the language spoken. What did Kannadigas do in the first golden period of 60 years after formation of linguistic states in India? (A person whose mother tongue is Kannada is called a Kannadiga). What did Kannadigas do for all round progress? Did they achieve anything, or did they waste these 60 golden years forever and forever? These will be big questions for future Karnataka historians. We Kannadigas have erred, very seriously indeed, by no trying to be progressive during the last 60 years. For example, now its 2017 AD of the 21st century, but still our business enterprise ability is stagnating at 1956 AD levels of 20th Century. Our construction enterprise is also stagnating at 1956 AD capabilities, unable to go vertically above ground plus 3 stories. Hardly we have one or two big name Kannadiga apartment builders in Bangalore. Any advanced linguistic society will have nearly twenty spheres of activity; but the Kannadiga society has left many of them unoccupied and dormant for the last 60 years, after the formation of Karnataka linguistic state. It is no wonder that the Kannadiga society is classified as Kahindha linguistic society.
