What happens if South India(Dravida Nadu) becomes a separate country ? (Hindi)

If you would like to argue about it, I am more than happy to do so.

I am interested in discussing it with anybody including you.

Muslim invasion from Pakistan would have also played a part.

There is or was no fear of Pak invading Tamil Nadu or South in general. It is a northie issue. Our soldiers are unnecessarily dying in the north.

what Indians specially Tamilnadu people thought about Sri Lanka before or during the British times.

I can tell you what Nehru thought. He wanted Sri Lanka part of india.

More recently BJP's subramaniam Swamy said that Sri Lanka should be annexed to India if they treat Tamils badly.

It's truly amazing how India is existing as a country despite being racially and culturally so different. Not to mention so many languages and religions. India is far from perfection but it is truly incredible India.

Separating from a country with an army is difficult. Bangla Desh got indep only because of Indian military help. East Timor because of threat of Western countries sanctions.

Croatia and Bosnia indep because of European and US military action against Serbia.

We are waiting for the right opportunity.

Well. I beg to differ. If you would like to argue about it, I am more than happy to do so.



Thank you for the well detailed analysis. I also think that the independence movement had galvanized the idea of unified India in the hearts and minds of all Indians. Most probably the threat of Muslim invasion from Pakistan would have also played a part. Isn't it?

And also, could you enlighten me on what Indians specially Tamilnadu people thought about Sri Lanka before or during the British times. Why didn't Indians try to amalgamate Sri Lanka, during colonial period of course; into its fold?

Yah the sentiments from partition left indelible imprint on the psyche of both sides (Esp federal political elite - delhi area vs pakistan punjab). It was traumatic episode all around.

This is why India basically was super cautious in looking expansionary (Esp after hyderabad annexation etc)....and why it left even Nepal to be its own political entity largely....compared to how internally S.V Patel did his Bismarcking.

So yeah with Sri Lanka, Burma etc it was not really approached seriously either, the British had created fundamentally different civic administration there anyway....and given India had more than enough on its own platter to keep what it inherited solid and together...any TN sentiments regarding potential SL integration (and they were few to begin with given DK periyar types wanted no more voting blocs that would be pro-federal etc) were not significant politically.

@surya kiran...too bad rajaraja chola and Joe Shearer don't stop by anymore....they would laugh at this clueless overcompensating and desperate moron some more.

this forum is a joke run by terrorist sympathisers. One of the reasons it should be used only for trolling, not serious discussions.

At the same time the Tamils are amongst the proudest Hindus

What u say may be true for 95% Tamils. In the 1950s Periyar and DK had huge following.
