It was Arun who has guided us and inspired me to add maps to Kannada wikipedia. :) And the credit goes to the OSM community for adding names in Kannada from past few years which has now crossed 23k![1]
I've uploaded some more static maps of northern districts of Karnataka and added them to their respective district Kannada wikipedia pages.[2] Comments and suggestions welcome. :)

An article from TOI today on how the Bengaluru tech community has been active at creating openstreetmaps in Kannada [1] and uploading localized maps to Wikipedia [2]. Those interested in similar initiatives in their language should get in touch with Yogesh [3]
