Tamil Internet 2001 Conference Invitation

[Guest guest]

I'm sure the Indologists recognize the need to expand and solidify

Tamil philology and Dravidian linguistics studies by mean of endowed

Professorships.

 

Here is an invitation to Tamil Internet 2001 conference.

 

Hope you can attend,

N. Ganesan
