The term originated during the British Raj to designate people from the southern parts of India, which were then in the Madras Presidency. During the early 1990s, the terms lungi hatao pungi bajao and Yendu gundu were coined by Shiv Sena in the Maharashtra state of India to ridicule languages from south India. South Indians were derisively referred to as "yandu
