| dc.description.abstract | The aim of this research is to study the thinking of Tamil newspapers and their role on issues related to Indians in Malaya from 1946 to 1960. The assessment is made by focussing on three Tamil newspapers, namely Tamil Nesan, Tamil Murasu and Jananayakam. It is based on the thinking of the three Tamil newspapers on issues related to Indians such as political awareness, establishment and struggles of MIC, Indian citizenship, MIC’s role on citizenship, Tamil ethnic awareness, Tamil education, habit of consuming toddy and problems concerning Indian labourers. The findings of this study show that the thinking of Tamil Nesan, Tamil Murasu and Jananayakam had played important roles on issues related to the Indians in Malaya. The thinking of these newspapers which are translated through the editorials had encouraged the Indian community to voice their rights in Malaya. The thinking of the Tamil newspapers which were conveyed through views, suggestions, criticisms, exhortations and persistence, raised awareness among the Indians to stay united and work together in demanding and fighting for their rights and maintaining the identity of Indians in Malaya. However, the thinking of the Tamil newspapers was unable to change government policies or individual attitude as a whole in the issues concerning Tamil Education, labour wages and the habit of consuming toddy. This research is qualitative in nature and is approached through library and archival research using primary and secondary sources. | en_US |
