Dravida Kazhagam leader Veeramani before being arrested said the Government of India should immediately intervene in the Tamils’ issue in Sri Lanka and desist from assisting the Sri Lanka Government that is seeking a military approach.
Thol Thirumavalavan, who heads the Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi said ‘It is a matter of national shame that some defence personnel from our (country) were found assisting Sri Lanka’s military establishment a few days’ ago’.
His reference was to the injuries two Indian radar technicians suffered when the LTTE executed a pre-dawn land and air attack on a Sri Lankan military base in Vavuniya earlier this month.
