World Tamil Conference



The World Tamil Conference (Tamil: உலகத் தமிà®´் à®®ாநாடு) is a series of occassional conferences to discuss the social growth of the Tamil language. Each conference is attended by thousands of Tamil enthusiasts around the world. Conferences are hosted in various cities in India, as well as world cities with a significant Tamil population. The conference aims in promoting the rich heritage of Tamil language, though many see it also as a political rallying point for electoral fortunes by the ruling dispensation in TN.
A similar conference called World Classical Tamil Conference 2010 unapproved by the International Association for Tamil Research was held in Tamilnadu conducted by the Dravida_Munnetra_Kazhagam under the leadership of M. Karunanidhi. Not all agreed with the academic and intellectual rigor of the latter event. Mr.Karunanidhi inaugurated a separate website for this conference.
