India should take better care of Tamils in Sri Lanka - Modi

[Manvantaratruti]

Could you please mention what rights SL Tamils do not have? They are just one ethnic minority in SL, what about other ethnics in Sri Lanka?

lol dude, Do you know how much Indian Tamils abandoned in SL by India?

Again you are asking the right question to the wrong person. You should be asking that question to the SL Tamils.

So far its only the Tamils who has come to India seeking help.

S. Lanka dismisses dead Tamil prisoner's 'violation of human rights' case | Business Standard

Here is Blatant right violation by an institution no less than the Supreme Court of SL.

Sri Lanka's Supreme Court has dismissed a case in which the parents of a dead Tamil prisoner were suing the state for violation of his rights.

Sri Lanka's de facto chief justice has denied leave to proceed in the case of Ganesan Nimalaruban.

Nimalaruban was one of two inmates who died in mysterious circumstances after prison authorities broke up a siege in northern Sri Lanka last year.

Both inmates died after being transferred to another jail.

According to the BBC, the prisons department said Nimalaruban, 28, died of heart disease - but his family and lawyers said he also suffered many contusions and abrasions.

The post-mortem report acknowledged physical trauma was the main cause of his death.

According to legal sources, the chief justice told the Supreme Court hearing that the army had no option but to quell the riot.

When asked if the prisoner was injured during the riot or after it, the chief justice said the man's family ought to know, the report added.

Letters: Sri Lanka's record on rights makes it unfit to lead Commonwealth | World news | The Guardian

• Across the world women's organisations are appalled at the systematic sexual torture, rape, and trafficking for sex slavery of Tamil women and girls living in the north-east of Sri Lanka, both during the conflict, and continuing after its brutal end in 2009...

Tamil women are victims of rape, rape in detention, and sexual as well as economic exploitation (for example, in the garment factories and army brothels) on a massive scale, but we now have evidence of forced sterilisation of Tamil women in a city in the north-east. Any measure intended to prevent births within in a particular group is defined as an act of genocide under article II of the genocide convention. Moreover, Sri Lanka has the highest number of "forcibly disappeared" people anywhere in the world. And of extra judicial killings.

Sri Lanka has continually refused to co-operate in any independent investigation into allegations of war crimes and crimes against humanity, and has insulted the UN human rights chief, Navi Pillay, who referred to these allegations following her visit to the island in August as "abusing her mandate and acting with bias".

And finally about SL Tamil rafugees from Red Cross.
Tales from Tamil refugee camps

Over the years, some 200,000 Tamils from Sri Lanka have fled to Tamil Nadu in southern India to escape the ongoing bloodbath in their island home.

We know what they are up to.

your stat are incorrect. According to government of India total amount is around 65,000. It should be around 50,000 now due to resettlement programs done by GoSL.

These guys are minority in your country mate, some vote bank politics also involved here.

When we forget boundaries for a minitue Sinhalese are the minority in the sub continent.

 

[Trev]

I don't know why Sri Lankans are getting so defensive. No one has bad wishes for Sri Lanka but you can't deny that SOME Tamils in your country are being oppressed.

 

[HeinzG]

If Sinhalese really believed that, then the SL Tamils would not have been driven away from SL and living as refugees in India.

When did Sinhalese do that?

In any case Indians do believe that SL have blood ties with India but the current issue is about the Tamils being treated badly and that is a burning political issue. How can a potential PM of India ignore the realities that face the Indian public ?

Then why not take Tamils to India and give the correct treatment. I think TN Tamils give really good treatment to SL Tamils in TN.

Why ? Modi is absolutely correct in what he said.

India does have a moral obligation to all ethnic Indians who live in all parts of the world. Be it SL, Fijgi, Maldives, Mauritius, South Africa, Gulf, West Indies etc.

I am pretty sure Modi does feel strongly about this issue.

Wait..? What..? Then what if the Tamils in Canada or Australia demand a separate nation in those countries will NaMo support that also?

Yes Sinhalese are a minority in Subcontinent, if we see it as a whole. Sinhalese have roots in Orissa. India do have some concerns after the civil war which happened in Tamil Majority areas, Rebuilding process is happening and India is also helping in this process.

LOL. Does denial lead to memory loss ?

We did. We also gave them arms ........be careful what you wish for.

Wait..? What..? Then what if the Tamils in Canada or Australia demand a separate nation in those countries will NaMo support that also?

He will when Tamils in Canada and Australia complain of human right abuse. Get it ?

There is no ethnic majority in subcontinent.
What are you trying to imply???

 

[Indischer]

Sinhalese have blood ties with India too. So why give special treatment to Tamils?

Because Sinhala votes won't matter in our upcoming Elections, unlike Tamil votes. . Chillax mate, it's just the usual drama that follows our elections. The Sinhalas are our brothers too.

 

[Indischer]

how does it link with my comment?

He is implying that Tamils are treated as second class citizens in Sri Lanka. Wasn't it the reason that Tamils took up an armed struggle in the first place?

 

[ranjeet]

Please I beg to you all Indians don't fcuk with the Lankans ..... I still haven't recovered from this ....

This is actually better than the horribly-out-of-place Bharatnatyam & kathak dancing cheerleaders(in traditonal attire too) that were seen in IPL (possibly from PWI). Imagine Ballet dancers cheerleading. This was just as ridiculous!

Well I don't agree with classical dancers being introduced in a highly testosterone environment. We need some honeys to take our minds off.

 

[Pakistanisage]

Good idea. The best way to better take care of Indian origin people like the Tamils in SL is to take them back to India.
