No Romesh the ball is in thw Sinhalese and teh Sri Lankan government. The hood the key no the Indian govet nor the Tamil Nadu politicians. They may use teh Eelam Tamil problem ofr thoer own agenda but to grant and to make it work is in the Sinhalese. However the Sri Lankan government only feed them with anti Tamil hatred from primary school eg The Tamil is fishing The Tamil man is climbing a tree to pluck coconuts, As if Sinhalese are not fishing and climbing coconut trees. They then glorify ancient wars between Sinhalese and Tamils wich have happened 2300 years ago. SInhla victories are praised and Tamil victories are decried. If you read a Sinhala newspaper or listen to thoer radio and or Tv it is full of anti Tamil vitriolic and propaganda by thoer Buddhist proests and politicians etc.Their Buddhist priests lead mobs to burn and destroy Tamil homes. They are not informed as to how much Tamils have contributed to Buddhism infact many SInhala Dramas are based on the Buddhist epic Kundalakesi. Many dont realise it is aTamil Buddhist epic. They are then fed this myth that they are full blooded Aryans descended from North Indian immigratns. They are not told the truth that other than the original Aryan migratns who took Pandyan women as their wives and also heavily intermarried in to the local people all other migrations have been from South India and they are alomst 80% of Tamil blood. Round 50% of them are descended form very recent Tamil migration. Around 600 to 100 years.
