“If Telangana in Andhra Pradesh can be carved as a new state, why not statehood for Kodagu? It is no secret that successive state governments have ignored our district for 50 years now. Pathetic infrastructure and no vision to develop Kodagu as well (sic). Participate in the discussion … It can be a healthy discussion between people for and those against statehood for Kodagu. We can make our case heard in our own sweet way.”

“Hindustan Times’’ write-up quotes Kodagu Community
1 comments:
1. I fail to understand how creating a new state will solve the infrastructure problem in Coorg. We will be exchanging one set of useless elected representatives for another.
2. A seperate state is not an economically viable option as Coorg depends on a single commodity....coffee.
3. The demand for a seperate state for the Codavas is unrealistic as more than 80% of the current population consists of non-Codavas.
4. I have my doubts about the true motives of the CNC. The group and their "leader" have been collecting money for many years with no accounts being provided.
