  13. My nephew is 27 years old, 6ft. tall,. B.E., soft ware enginéer working in Bangalore. He is from Shivalli, smarth Brahmins Udupi. Seeking alliance from shivalli smartha /Kota Brahmin girl working in Bengaluru.

  14. I am writing this on my behalf and place it on record that highest divorce cases are from shivalli tulu madhwa brahmins girls. Now shivalli madhwa brahmins girls marrying brahmins grooms, subsect like uttaradi mutt, vysaraja mutt, sankethi etc, cant discharge the duty of wife is an invitation for divorce and making the grooms life as hell. So much of narrow minded as prevailed in shivalli tulu madhwa brahmins family by showing bais in other brahmins. This type of mediocre mentality isnt accepted by society. Many many people from North karnataka brahmins are calling me every day and ask why shivalli tulu brahmins are showing disrespect in other brahmins?Their anger vent on me and have no response. In simple i would say, its fixed mindset which shows their rigid, shallow thinking and non acceptance to change in the society is the major reason behind this. If a shivalli girl is not flexible with progressive and broadthinking anb shows regressive in the society. Such girls aren’t fit for marriage and lead to divorce for them which they like it very much.

    Shivalli madhwa brahmims girls are known for domination, greediness, beauty and narrow thinking by giving disrespect to the family members.

    Such girls will be the problems for not others but whole society of other brahmins were many grooms married to shivalli girls and got divorced.
