Change the Image of Vetuvan koil to Image of Parthasarathy Perumal Temple. Vettuvan Koil is just 8th Century CE but Sri Parthasarathi Perumal Temple, Chennai dates way earlier to 5th Century CE or even older. The Structure finds a mention even in the Brahmanda Puranam, Naalayira Divya Prabandham and many more books. The temple also has inscriptions about the Pallava king, Nandivarman who lived between (718 CE – 796 CE). One of the earliest Alvars Pey Alvar (who lived between 5th and 6th Century) has mentioned this temple, which makes the temple The Oldest structure in Chennai. This Temple has faced several floods, cyclones, Tsunami (Just 400 Metres from the Beach). Several Singers and Philosophers were devoted to this God, Example Ramanujar, Vedanta Desikar, Muthuswamy Dheekshithar Swami Vivekanada, Bharathiyar and many more. This temple deserves a place in the Article Tamil Nadu instead of Vettuvan Koil. Sastri676 (talk) 06:53, 19 December 2023 (UTC)

The article states the following:


 * Tamil Nadu is the home of the Tamil people, whose speak Tamil language

This ought to be changed to:


 * Tamil Nadu is the home of the Tamil people, who speak the Tamil language

which is more grammatically correct. Kuulopuhe (talk) 22:55, 27 December 2023 (UTC)


 * Unless this construction is correct in Indian English, the form in which the article is written (and with which I am not familiar). Kuulopuhe (talk) 22:57, 27 December 2023 (UTC)

We need to add "Dhanushkodi" under the Tourism section, as the place has a significant history, also we record so many tourists visiting the place every year. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AnanyaBDas (talk • contribs) 13:59, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

Later conflicts and European colonization: "the British Crown"
I think this sentence is a bit too simple: "After the Indian Rebellion of 1857, the British Raj was formed after the British crown took over the control of governance from the company." The British Crown didn't have the constitutional power to take over the governance. It was the British Parliament that did it, by passing the Government of India Act 1858, which transferred governance from the East India Company to the Crown. The net result was the same, but I think it's important to have the legal mechanism correct. How about: "After the Indian Rebellion of 1857, the British Parliament passed the Government of India Act 1858, which transferred the governance of India from the East India Company to the British crown, forming the British Raj."
