Paataali Makkal Katchi(PMK) on Monday, January 5 charged the Congress led union government of "humiliating" the government and people of Tamil Nadu state by not taking steps to ensure a ceasefire in Sri Lanka.

 

Tamil Nadu Assembly had passed two unanimous resolutions urging the Centre to press Sri Lankan government to enforce a ceasefire. "But the Centre had not taken any action on it," PMK founder S Ramadoss told reporters.

 

"By this, the Centre had humiliated the people of Tamil Nadu and the government here," he said.

 

"Sri Lankan government, with the help of arms from China and Pakistan and with technical support of Indian government was annihilating the Tamil race on the island," he charged.

 

Ramadoss, further said the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) was only a "liberation organisation like the PLO (Palestinian Liberation Organisation)".

Sri Lanka is one of the most dangerous places in the world to be a journalist. Tamil journalists are particularly at threat, with at least 41 media workers known to have been killed by the Sri Lankan state or its paramilitaries during and after the armed conflict.

Despite the risks, our team on the ground remain committed to providing detailed and accurate reporting of developments in the Tamil homeland, across the island and around the world, as well as providing expert analysis and insight from the Tamil point of view
