Namma Karavali brings stories from Coastal Karnataka in a language you understand 0 claps Share on Featuring local, instant and relevant news in Karavali (a dialect of Kannada), the Namma Karavali app is transcending linguistic barriers and creating a personal connect. Language is an important part of one’s identity. It connects people, builds relationships and creates a sense of belonging. With English being the dominant language for news and stories online, very few understand that all Indians are not proficient in the language. Also, favouring a regional language over English is not wrong, it simply suggests freedom of choice. Namma Karavali has cashed in on the need for news in a regional language and launched its own app, an online hyperlocal news aggregator for the coastal Karnataka audience spread across the world. Users can stay abreast of happenings in local towns and also of news across the world, all curated in their own language, Karavali.
