[edit] Licensing

The photographer of this photo is unknown but reasonably assumed to be Indian. It is reasonably assumed to date to the 1950s or 1960s (If it is older than 60 years, it would be in the public domain).

If it is aged less than 60 years, fair use on Devaneya Pavanar is argued, because

it is a historically significant photo of a famous individual;
the photo is only being used for informational purposes;
Its inclusion in the article adds significantly to the article because it shows the subject of this article.

This work is copyrighted and unlicensed. It does not fall into one of the blanket acceptable non-free content categories listed at Wikipedia:Non-free content#Images or Wikipedia:Non-free content#Audio clips. However, it is believed that the use of this work in the article "Devaneya Pavanar" :

To illustrate the subject in question
Where no free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information
On the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation ([1]),

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content and Wikipedia:Copyrights.

To the uploader: this tag is not a sufficient claim of fair use. You must also include the source of the work, all available copyright information, and a detailed non-free use rationale.

note that the same photographs was used in the design of a commemorative stamp, for which see Image:Devaneya Pavanar Stamp.jpg. It thus seems likely that the copyright holder, if any, would be the Government of India or of Tamil Nadu.
