Very sad to see the reports in the news papers/channels about ‘fight’ among two factions for performing puja in the temple in Nanjanad, the biggest hatti of Badagas.
Nearly a hundred years back, Rao Bahadur Ari Gowder lamented about the sorry state of affairs, ‘hattiga ettu gudi katti, sundey hakkodhu bekkaa? [Do we need to build so many temples just to fight]?’
Come on Nanjanadu Hattikaararay, remember “In UNITY lies our STRENGTH and DESTINY”!
Bury your differences and be ONE !!

Tiger is HULI in Badaga Lanuage
Here's a question that was posed to the Dalai Lama:
"What thing about humanity surprises you the most?"
His answer is : "MAN - Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices his money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he doesn't enjoy the present,
And as a result he doesn't live in the present or the future. And he lives as if he's never going to die and then he dies having never really lived".

FIFTEEN YEARS BEFORE THERE IS WORST HATTI MEANS THAT IS NANJANADU. PEOPLE THEY FORMING GROUP AS “A” PARTY “B” PARTY AND FIGHTING EACH OTHER. AND LOT OF MONEY SPEND TO POLICE AND COURT. AFTER THAT THEY ALL ARE CHANGED THEIR LIFESTYLE AND THEY ARE NOT BELIEVING ANY GROUP AND FIGHTING. THIS IS AGAIN STARTED AND HEARING EVERYDAY IS VERY SAD NEWS. EVEN LADIES ALSO GOING TO JAIL. AND THIS IS NOT OUR COMMUNITY. I FELT VERY SORRY ABOUT IT.

Yes Sir I too felt very bad & much angry to see the news . Fighting among Badagas in such a small community we do this, it just shows where we stand how we are differed among ourselves. Its a shame on us. People who fight are elderly and enough matured but they do it for their dignity. Lets live our life leaving away our dignity all are HUMAN. We should show our identity in society for good and make our younger generation proud among others.
