What major change came about in Tamil Nadu two years after Anna's death?

  • Name change of Madras State to Tamil Nadu

  • Capital changed

  • New Constitution adopted

  • None of the above

Answer

Two years after Anna's death, Madras State was renamed to Tamil Nadu. This change was a reflection of the growing sense of Tamil nationalism and a desire to distance the state from its colonial past. The name "Tamil Nadu" means "Land of the Tamils" and it was chosen to reflect the state's rich history and culture.
