How come th epopulation mentioned in this article (288 000) is smaller than that of Andaman islands alone (315 000) ? -- Kummi 20:42, 24 July 2005 (UTC)
I do not think the following statement is correct: "It became an Indian union territory (UT) along with the declaration of India's independence in 1947."
The original Constitution of India says in the First Schedule, Part II: The Andaman and Nicobar Islands...The territory which immediately before the commencement of this Constitution was comprised in the Chief Commissioner's Province of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands.
This implies that the Andaman and Nicobar Islands was a Chief Commissioner's Province between 1947 and 1950, not a Union Territory. -- Manojb 09:58, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
de:Andamanen und Nikobaren states, that the Andamans and Nicobar Islands were an Austrian colony between 1778 and 1783. Does anyone know more about it? Gugganij 11:27, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
The Austrians claimed the Nicobar Islands as a colony, but this claim was not effectuated as the Nicobars were already a colony of Denmark-Norway. Danes and Norwegians landed their at 1755, and they eventualy left in 1868, followed by Brits in 1868. The colony was supplied with colonists, soldiers and resources from the nearby Danish-Norwegian colony of Trankebar (colony from 1620-1845). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.135.32.57 ( talk) 10:15, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
The languages mentioned on the page as official languages of the ANI are not OFFICIAL. There are significant populations that speak these languages there but the union territory's government does not recognize them as OFFICIAL. The Union Government recognises 22 languages in the 8th Schedule but Nicobarese etc are not on that list. So what list is this refering to? Languages recognised/allowed in legal proceedings are not necessarily OFFICIAL languages —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 203.199.177.246 ( talk) 08:33, 8 January 2007 (UTC).

This article has very much in parallel with the Andaman Islands article. The two groups of islands have very much a common history. I saw that each one has much useful information which the other does not, and a reader getting to only one would miss the information availalbe in the other. . Adam Keller 08:51, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
The Andamans and the Nicobars are both distinct island groups that ought to be treated separately. ANI is a political entity and needs to be retained unless you also delete all the other articles about states and territories of India. Esquimo 08:45, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

In the 4th paragraph, there is a rather irritating and possibly misleading statement.
That statement - ?The Andaman Islands are home to the only known Paleolithic people, the Sentinelese people, who have no contact with any other people.? needs clarification.
That particular term occurs in this page only. It is nowhere seen on the page of Sentinelese people.
What does Paleolithic people mean? A subset of humanity that follows paleolithic lifestyle Paleolithic Lifestyle? A genetically unique subgroup of humanity? Or, perhaps a isolated group of human that survived throughout the paleolithic age right in this single location and are now known as sentinelese people? No matter what, sentinelese would hardly be classified as the only unique group. Plenty of genetically isolated subgroups to go around. Or, modern day nuts who want to emulate paleoloths.
Is the term Paleolithic people even a scientifically acceptable term to define a tribal community such as this?

As you all know Andaman & Nikobar is the part of India.You will be surprised to know that the Andaman & nikobar is part of Great Himalayan series( Young folded mountain).They were formed as a result of tectonics movement of Plates (Indo-Australian plate and asian plate).
This was how these islands were formed and they became populated during the freedom struggle against British empire by the India.British constructed a prison on the island(In india known as KAALE PANI KI SAZA),so that no prisoner can come back from there.British started carrying the people to the prison who led the revolution against them,one of the popular prisoner was Veer Savarkar.Most of the prisoner survived their till India got the freedom.

There may be a grammatical error in the lead section of the article. In the sentence: "In the 11th century CE, Cholas, one of the three Tamil kingdoms, used the islands as a naval base to launch an expeditions in South East Asia.", saying "an expeditions" is incorrect, since an can only precede singular terms, so the an should be removed (or expeditions should be singular if they only launched one). If anyone can do this, that would be appreciated. Thank you in advance, and have a nice day! 90.139.189.126 ( talk) 18:09, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

There may be a grammatical error in the lead section of the article. In the sentence: "In the 11th century CE, Cholas, one of the three Tamil kingdoms, used the islands as a naval base to launch an expeditions in South East Asia.", saying "an expeditions" is incorrect, since an can only precede singular terms, so the an should be removed (or expeditions should be singular if they only launched one). If anyone can do this, that would be appreciated. Thank you in advance, and have a nice day! 90.139.189.126 ( talk) 18:09, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
