Sunday Times (South Africa) reports that the Federal Government has agreed to set up the International Institute of Classical Tamil in Chennai with Prizes and Awards for scholars & experts. MK has strived for this and succeeded. His stature is now higher than that of K.Kamaraj in days of yore.

Our tamil scholars who yearn for PhDs from english universities – where they are supervised by professors who learned THEIR tamil in Tamil Nadu – may now go to the Land of Birth of the Tamil Language to do their research for post graduate degrees.

How come nobody raised the question of DMK claiming to be stalwarts of our Tamil language, yet Mr. MK naming his son as ‘STALIN’; Stalin is the Surname of this Soviet dictator who had killed millions.
Thamizh vaazhga!

ilaya seran senguttuven has said it all.
We lankan tamils need a strong tamil nadu and its support in our struggle .
Tamil Nadu is our cultural and spiritual home. Kalaignar is our patriarch and protector.
He will guide the indian establishment in our quest for justice.
The recent Eleven Fishermen Affair appears to be an attempt to discredit him in the eyes of the central government.
But the veteran will weather the storm and come up stronger than before.
Farmers are not committing suicide in taml nadu unlike in maharashtra.

How did Tamilnadu manage to become a reasonably successful State with the likes of Karunanidhi, MGR, Jay-Lolita et al? They were all known for crass corruption. The uncharitable answer is, of course, TN went ahead – in spite of them. As a regular visitor to TN for the past 40 years, I am glad it is so. How a generally dry State such as this produces sufficient Rice, Vegetables and other food essentials within reachable levels even to the poor and marginalised is a study our own “crooks” – Sorry, political leaders – must learn from. The people of TN have within them educated men and women – first class professionals in all fields – who are a pride to any State/Country. Tamilnadu is the home of our temples, our traditions and our culture. To us it is sacred land graced by the presence and the influences of our many dieties.

I wish Tamilnadu and her wonderful, friendly people well. Incidentally, CM MK has always been one of my favourite Tamil writers from the days of the unforgettable “Parasakthi” – one movie that changed the perception of Society – although I regret the violence against the Brahmins then. Things have changed.

Priya, a Brahmin, married Daya – and that is how it should be. Like Kerala TN is home for all religions and cultures.
I join the others in congratulating DBS on a well written article of a family – many of whom my family and I have the privilege of knowing personally as close friends. In spite of everything I have noticed the people of TN have warmth and friendship to Tamils, Sinhalese, Muslims and others of Sri Lanka. TN is our neighbour, kin and friend in need.
