The hatred by Sinhalese of India is well known. Even Rajiv was not spared by the Sinhalese who butted the gun against Rajiv's head was regarded as a hero in Sri Lanka. Leaders of Tamil Nadu have never given proper support to Tamils in Sri Lanka. The Buddhism practised in Sri Lanka is a violent one with monks influencing the masses to kill Tamils. AND INDIA IS WATCHING THE DESTRUCTION OF TAMILS WITH GLEE ON THE FACE??

all stopped when they killed Rajiv Gandhi. also, when they killed other tamil groups..everything stopped.now no support..
In the name of local problems all over the world some anti socials are terrorising the society. Some have moral cause, but many have ill intention and they killed the normal life of the public. LTTE chief is not a partriot, he is just a hooligan in the eye of patriot. His days must be counted. Purna Chandra Deo, Orissa.

Oh , It seems tht Purna have a Doctrate Degree in Srilankn Politics. Here's Some thing tht u would enjoy more "Tamils account 18% of the population and they control one third of the land" If u want to stop it u have fight it are u willing to do tht to support ur comment.
Time and time people have mentioned that Sinhalese of Sri Lanka are dead against India. Only Tamils of Sri Lanka look to india for any help in the situation. Even India helped in destruction of Tamils during Rajiv times. Nowhere in the world have Hindus suffered so much as they have in Sri Lanka. All help sent to s of Tsunami was enjoyed by the Sinhalese where chaprassis bought big Mercedes cars. Organisation helping Tamils has been classified as helping terrorist. Scenes of Galle, Sinhalese stronghold was shown as having suffred but NOTHING about Tamils areas that faced the Tsunami Directly were shown. Prabhaharan is shown as a terrorist when he is fighting for rights of Tamils who have suffered under Sinhalese hotheads like Rajpakse. They talk about peace and are contunually destroying Tamils. Norway organised peace talks under which Sinhalese have rearmed and destroyed Tamils civilian areas. AND CURRENT CONGRESS GOVERNMENT IS HAPPY TO SEE ANNIHALATION OF TAMILS WHOSE HATRED FOR INDIA IS WELL KNOWN!

Well said. But for the LTTE and other similar groups, the Tamils there would not have enjoyed such rights as they do now.

The problem with Tamils is their inability and also unwillingness to learn others' language. If they had conceded the majority of the Sinhalese, then there would not have been much problem. Even in the state of Karnataka, the problem of the Tamils started from their refusal to speak in Kannada until about 25 years and that sparked the Kannada chavunism whose primary target is anything connected with Tamil.

Can you say how many non Tamils have bothered to learn Tamil language?
When Tamils go to Delhi, they are expected to speak Hindi only. When Delhi people come down to TN, even then Tamils are expected to speak in Hindi. What double standards!
As for the Tamil-Kannadiga rivalry, if you read South Indian History (not about Delhi history), you will find that mutually hostile relations existed between the Tamil and Kannadiga kingdoms even as early as 7th Century AD and has continued since then. Don't write without knowing the facts.

Dont poke finger?? When Tamil civilians have been killed by Sinhalese dominated army? Learn why Tamils asking for some freedom. Enjoy in secure India but let other Hindus suffer in places like Sri Lanka? The Buddhist monks have been vying for Tamil blood for a long time just because they are Hindus. If you are not concerned go and close yourself in a closed room. You will have no concern for anybody then.

Yes, Dont POKE finger. Are u aware that LTTE killed many fellow tamilians in SL before they became the number one tamil sepratist group.... So no hinduism....its all money an power
Before we enjoy the news, we must know "why the tamilians in srilanka took arms? ".They were facing inhuman and severe discrimination from the majority Simhala! Like what is happening in Gujrat to Muslims now (there are report that even nationalized banks are not opening branches in Muslim majority areas!)!Srilanka has already paid the price for that discrimination!

how could u compare the LTTE menace with the muslims in Gujrat - the writer seems to be mental pervert. the problem with tamils in shrilanka is totally different. The problems of some muslims in india is self made. do not forget we had muslim presidents and our favourite filmi heroes are muslims.

Dear Prince I am agree that there are many problems which Muslims have created for them selves , but some one Muslim was president or some successful film stars are Muslims, it is because of their merit. Infect Muslims are living in ghettoes in India, This ghettoize further improved by babri mosque incident and what happened in Gujarat. It is the responsibility of the Indian govt to provide the security to all the citizens irrespective of their religion and culture.

Mr Indian, Your assessment about srilankan situation may be correct! I do not know! But drawing parallel between Gujarat and srilanka shows lack of understanding. In this election, Muslims voted for Modi. Muslims are happy and safe. For your info. nationalised banks are running under Reserve bank and not under Modi.

If everyone start taking arms and trying to resolve all issues on its own, the system will crash. Everyone has problems and taking up arms is not the solution to it. It only worsens it. There is nothing like discrimination. If it is in yourself, then no one can bring it out.
Instead of appeasing terrorists and Naxalites, the government needs to launch an all out offensive against them. There is no reason why the Naxal menace can't be destroyed in 6 months.

Well said Murali i belive that instaed of launching offensive method they need to be given anmanesty and ask them to surrender and they will be allowed to live free live hereafter. As they are aslo humans just some meschief mongers have brainwashed them either he is from kashmir or any part we need to know the root cause of terrssiom and the govt has to look after cause or else it will never end.

The root cause of Naxalism is the under-development of certain sections of society. Although this definitely should be rectified, this will take years to redress. Today, the Naxalite movement is run by corrupt and greedy people. Look at the way they senselessly kill policemen and destroy so many families. The Naxal movement needs to be eliminated, but special care must be taken to improve the lives of tribals and impoverished villagers.
RE:This is what the Indian govt needs to do

.. and the politicians in those areas are greedy and corrupt, as well.
You can never defeat the naxals without support of the masses. The masses are not going to betray the naxals, for sure.

Like what, Murali, subscribing to their "ideals" and distribute your hard-earned wealth to poor villagers, thus extinguishing their motivation to educate themselves and grow up the economic ladder?
The economy has been opened up for the last 16 years only. The trickle down effect of this opening up will take at least 20-25 years for it to be felt in the hinterland. We were willing to be patient enough with useless socialism for 44 years. We need to be patient and let the government (pressurize them, if need be) build the infrastructure so that people can have access to better facilities and thus reap economic benefits....
Terrorism of whatever kind has to be met with similar token. No half measures, no gandhigiri works with such bigoted nincompoops.

Hello Natasha, the govt under a lady tried that with Naxals in the emergency era. Then again naxalism revived itself. The root cause is not that certain sections in society were underdeveloped but because they were systematically deprived of the resources and then their resources were taken away by the corrupt and greedy of both feudal and corporate India by using every legal and illegal force with them. Hence this revives. Today naxalism talks the language of their arch enemies in terms of extortion and murders. The problem lies with the way the current rulers are handling the situation. The root cause remains active all the time so it will come back. Take a situation - While we are happy at the message board today debating, even rivers in MP are getting privatized. It means people just cant take river water anymore. Legal laws are in place to help such activities in the name of development. While we educated may pay water tax and get the water, where do the people go whose life depended on the river water? Do you think they want to buy water and get bullets instead? If this kind of attitude will not breed naxalism what will? FYI I do not justify naxalism ut just stating that our system's actiosn are perpetuating this.
