Mumbai (RBI),Oct.29: Non-Resident (Outside) Kannadigas are all assets of coastal and are boon for the prosperity of Karnataka. Non-resident Indians and Mumbaikars have contributed enough to coastal hinterland. So my priority is the development of overseas Kannadigas. Such non-resident Kannadigars need a ministry and the government needs to plan for this and to provide employment to those returning to back from abroad. Efforts are underway to include it in the manifesto said Non Residential Indians (NRI Forum Karnataka) Vice Chairperson Dr. Aarthi Krishna
