The Karnataka Wing was revived and re-established in the year 2001, as a linguistic wing under the umbrella of Indian Social club, Muscat for the people of Karnataka. The purpose of the Wing is to provide a common platform to express, perform and share the rich culture and traditions of Karnataka.
The name Karnataka Wing was chosen instead of Kannada Wing to bring together and represent all residents of Karnataka, i.e. Kannada, Konkani, Tulu and Coorgi speaking people as well as residents who have opted to reside and be part of Karnataka under one roof.

The
Kerala Wing of Indian Social Club, a unique organization in the
socio-cultural scenario of Sultanate of Oman, was founded on 20th January 2001.
The need for an organization which should provide succor to the common
pravasis and reflect the cultural heritage of Malayalis was felt by a
group of progressive minded individuals. The breakthrough came by the end of
2000 and the first official meeting was held on 20 January 2001. The
Organization was inaugurated by the Gandharva of Indian music, Dr. K J
Yesudas on 29th January 2001, by reciting the most famous verses of legendary
social reformer, Shree Narayana Guru, ‘Oru Jathi, Oru Matham, Oru
Dhaivam Manushyanu’ meaning One Caste, One Religion, One God for Man. Web
