i am not a great student of history but from whatever i read from history makes me wonder whether south indians ever wanted freedom from the moguls or british?
The north,west and east constantly opposed the moguls and british ,but it appears that the british had been in chennai since 1600 a.d. but the southies never opposed them.One of my south indian friends told me that it is very hard to find any incidents of south's resistance to british or moguls though there were a very very few exceptions.It appears that southies don't have any such history for which they can be proud of.

  The above clearly proves that while North Indian soldiers were considering themselves to be slaves
  of Britishers and shooting down fellow North Indians the famous example being that of the Jalianwalla Bagh massacre the tamils who lived in foreign countries and DID NOT KNOW hindi who answered the call of Subhash Chandra Bose and fought and defeated the Bristish.

  Tamils contribution near to zero.
  They are even today only fit for grabbing govt jobs by getting dubious sc/st certificates.
  These people are good to be slaves, mostly illegal immigrants in singapore, malaysia, korea are from tamilnadu and they have nothing to do with our country. What patriotism you can expect from them?

  Illegal immigation is a shame of Indian government. How can the Indians treat some of their own citizens as second class?
