There also was a brief period, during which it idealized a separate Dravidian land, comprising the southern regions of India, and Tamil Eelam.

That the DMK originally wanted an independent Tamil Nadu is well known, but could someone please cite a source for the claim that the DMK had designs on the Northeast of Sri Lanka? I've never seen a reference to this in any source, and it seems to run counter to the suggestion that Chelvanayakam briefly toyed with the idea before dropping it for lack of support from Tamil politicians. -- Arvind 21:55, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

I think the party was formed in 1949? Please verify the current info in the info box--Ravishankar 16:24, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] What does the votes in the table refer to?

It is confusing what the votes in the table represent. Please mention clearly what those numbers represent. Also I think its better if the numbers are changed to Indian Numbering System. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Veeru7 (talk • contribs) 20:36, 6 December 2006 (UTC).

[edit] ============================

The article appears to bear a biased view; I admit I have not read it in its entirety, but the section 'Justice Party, forerunner to DMK' clearly is in need of reliable citations to support it. Subravenkat 23:08, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] ========================================

Can you please also add about the party's biased and want of power to remain in the family itself, by removing people, those who are potential threat to take away the power from the family. Removed people list is increasing but the names long pending are the party chief's sons. Ashok249 (talk) 21:11, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] POV?

Can someone pointout the issues relating to the NPOV tag please. It would be nice if people who are concerned about the POVs to list them out so that it can be sorted. Cheers Wiki San Roze ^†αLҝ 11:17, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Rajiv Gandhi Murder - Before and After

 After MGR's death in December 1987, AIADMK split into two factions between Janaki (MGR's wife) and Jayalalithaa (Propaganda President and Co-artist of MGR in Films). This ended the winning streak of AIADMK and brings DMK to the power in 1989 State assembly elections. The central government under Chandrashekar has dismissed the DMK government on argument of "constitutional machinery in the state had broken down". 
 Then in 1991 elections are arranged to be held for both State and Central government. In 21 May 1991 Rajiv Gandhi was assassinated in Sriperumbudur, near Chennai in a election campaign meeting. It was later found the he has been killed by suicide bomber from LTTE, citing IPKF atrocities in Srilanka as a reason.
 This lead to sympathy wave favor of AIADMK - Congress alliance and DMK is deprived of any seats in the Parliament. This brings the rise of political rival J.Jayalalitha to the DMK.
