[edit] Persecution
"A significant proportion of the Tamil diaspora in Western countries consists of educated Tamil Brahmins, who left Tamil Nadu as a result of persecution by the Dravidian Movement during the second half of the 20th century."
The emigration of Tamil Brahmin to Westerns countries as direct consequence of “persecution” of the Dravidian Movement is rather an absurd claim. How many people were killed in the persecution? --Natkeeran 22:58, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
People need not be killed in a persecution regime. They can simply be harrassed into getting out. For example a huge number of Jews emigrated from Nazi Germany *before* the Holocaust began. At that time, no Jews were being killed in Germany. User: Ramananpi
