Dravida Nadu sometimes called Dravidistan, was the name of a proposed sovereign state for all Dravidian languages in South Asia. Initially, the demand of Dravida Nadu proponents was limited to Tamil-speaking region, but later, it was expanded to include other states with Dravidian speakers in majority Some of the proponents also included parts of Ceylon, Orissa and Maharashtra.Other names for the proposed sovereign state included "South India", "Deccan Federation" and "Dakshinapath".The movement for Dravida Nadu was at its height from 1940s to 1960s, but failed to find any support outside Tamil Nadu.Even in Tamil Nadu, where the anti-Hindi agitations attracted many supporters, there was no serious demand on the part of the common people for a sovereign Dravidian state.The reorganization of the Indian states along linguistic lines through the States Reorganisation Act of 1956 weakened the separatist movement.and the prominent Tamil leader E. V. Ramaswamy Naicker gave up the demandfor Dravida Nadu in 1956. The movement was continued by the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam, which formally gave up its demand for a separate sovereign state in 1963.
