| | The Demand for Dravida Nadu |
 | | At the second session of the Ramnad District Tamilians Conference at Karaikudi it was resolved " to work for the formation of a separate Tamil province, exclusively for Tamilians, and the use of Tamil as the administrative language". |
 | | A different explanation of the terms 'Tamilian' and 'Tamilnad' was given by S. Muthiah Mudaliar, a former Minister and a leader of the Justice Party, at the Tinnevely District Tamilian Conference at Tuticorin. |
 | | Muthiah Mudaliar added that the term Tamil was a comprehensive name, which included its sister languages, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada, and that the term Tamilnadu, understood in a limited sense, was confined to the southern districts but according to its extended significance, it included the whole of the Madras Presidency. |
