from purely natinal point of view, if India had helped form a Eelam State, she would have had a steadfast ally in her soft underbelly not like the one on her eastern flank, who stabbed her in the back at the first opportunity. But i guess Rajiv Gandhi was too stupid to understand hard politics unlike his much brainier mother.
