A
most fascinating word which is felt and loved by the people of Mangalore is ‘Kudla’.
For most Mangaloreans the word in an emotive way describes their hometown. It
has a sentimental value to every person born in Mangalore. The word cannot be separated
from their culture. To respond to such
feelings a weekly newspaper, “Times of Kudla” has emerged in the city.
What
is so special about the newspaper? It comes as a gift to the people of Tulunadu
and the Mangaloreans to keep in touch with the ancient Tulu culture, tradition,
religiosity of the people and their opinion, life-style, etc. This is one of
the media which is giving a focused orientation to people and explores various
ways to educate and expand the knowledge of the people. It is published once in
a week on Friday, yet it covers a wider range of topics revolving around the
significance of the culture and the unity in diversity of the all the people
living in Mangalore.
The
weekly newspaper highlights the areas of devotion-‘Daiva nade’ or ‘Bhootha’s
presence among people’, Tulunadu recipes (how to cook), feature stories about ancient
people, monumental things of Tulunadu, radio gudda, games of Tulunadu- Kambla, cock
fight, Pili Vesha, health issues, literature related events and writing. Above
all, the newspaper also educates the people who want to learn Devanagri script.
In short ‘Times of kudla’ can be considered as a beacon to inform its readers
about Tulunadu.
