Tamil National Retrieval Troops
1980s nationalist militant group
Tamil Nadu National Retrieval Troops (TNNRT) was a short lived Tamil nationalist militant group who had fought to gain independence from India in the 1980s.[1] The group wanted to unite a greater Tamil Nadu nation for their people.[1] Tamil Nadu National Retrieval Troops fought the majority of their conflicts in the 1990s.[1] This organization was considered to be part of a larger nationalist Tamil Nadu movement. However, the Tamil Nadu Retrieval Troops were never that large; their membership often hovered around 30.[1] The young men fighting in the Tamil National Retrieval Troops were mostly from the Vanniyar community.[1] The Tamil Nadu National Retrieval Troops are also known as Tamil Nadu Nadu Retrieval Troops* - this is not another branch but rather another name used by the group.[2]
