It is the Chennai chapter of the Indian Linux Users Group. India is a country with around 35 major languages and hundreds of minor languages. And, except for a few fanatics in a few cities, a country which enjoys this linguistic diversity and is very tolerant of other languages. Tamilnadu in general and Chennai is particular has always been known for this tolerance. I am unable to recall a single instance or language riots and agitations (apart from the anti-hindi agitation, which was not targetted against hindi speaking people, but against certain policies of the central government. > > I appeal all Tamil people, also to post in Tamil.
