I have seen most of Indian members here lack of knowledge about Sri Lanka or some southern Indian members based on their media, mostly anti-Sri Lankan news.
There was an election some parts of North before this election.
In this election TNA (Tamil National Alliance) able to secure around 124,000 votes and UPFA (United people's Freedom Alliance (government's party)) able to secure around 48,000 votes in the north. Main opposition party UNP (United National Party) unable to secure any council. So most of members are from TNA and UPFA, few other from some other parties.
