Winning the
PC elections in the North by itself is not the end of it. The TNA has now got to sit down to work as
responsible politicians planning their activities as a part of the Central
Government of Sri Lanka, with it and not against it.
Why did the
Tamils in the North, almost 90 percent of the educated, professional,
merchants, salesmen, skilled and unskilled workers, farmers, labourers, men and women all voted to TNA a party that
was “hatched” from the cocoon of terrorism ?
In other
words the Tamils in the North en block voted for the memory of “terrorism”. While Wigneshawaran the ex-judge got the
highest preferential vote, Ananthi
Sasitharan former terrorist cadre got the next highest preferential vote. The Tamils have their destinies with
terrorism and Sri Lanka
has to keep that in mind and keep the
Army Camps permanently stationed in the North as given the opportunity the
Tamils in the north may encourage
terrorism once again. They may even willingly give their children as future
suicide bombs.
It must be
in their blood to “enjoy” suffering-sort of a sadist tendency. Even Wigneshvaran an ex-judge who has his
sons married to Sinhala women, educated and lived perhaps all his life in the
South with the Sinhala, proved without
any doubt that through out the thirty years of terrorism he had been a
sympathiser of the terrorists.
Can we therefore rule out that Navi Pillay the
UNCHR is also in heart very much a sympathiser of the Sri Lanka Tamil
terrorists and hero worships Prbhakaran the terrorist to whose memory she
wanted to offer flowers at Nandikadal ?
The hero
worship of Prabhakaran did not come to ex-judge Wigneshvaran overnight, it is
some thing that had been in his heart all the time, and felt safe and at home
among the TNA “terrorist lovers” to openly declare that Prabhakaran was a freedom fighter and a hero of the Tamil
people. He even compared Prabhakaran to
Keppeitipola Disawe who revolted against the British.
There are
other stake holders Viswanathan Rudrakumaran –already the Prime Minister of the Transnational Government of Tamil Eelam,
Father S.J.Emmanuel of the Global Tamil Forum, and numerous others lining up to
infiltrate into the North- for them the “terre Saint” of terrorism.
If the government does not keep an eye as to
what is taking place in the North with TNA on the saddle we may end up with a another
30 years of terrorism. Tamils in the
North seem to love it, and will invest for it to happen again.
This
attachment to suffering of the Tamil people in the North of Sri Lanka- as much
as those Tamils elsewhere as witnessed by ex- Judge Wigneshwaran’s hero worship
of the ruthless terrorist Prabhakaran, seems to be an inborn Tamil trait. They pay penance to their Gods
subjecting themselves to pain, such as being hung in carts, rolling on the
ground, piercing the tongue, dragging carts tied onto hooks pierced into the
skin of the devotee’s back, walk on fire and so on.
Therefore
there is no wonder the Tamils of the North vote TNA the political party closely
connected to terrorism. For three or four years there had been cultural exchanges
where many Tamil people , old , the youth and school children were invited to
the south and received by the Sinhala families.
Many opportunities were provided for the Tamils in the North to mix with the Sinhala people in the South. But all those friendly contacts had not given
any confidence or attachment to the Sinhala people. Their contact with the
Sinhala had been superficial not going beyond
their narrow Communal barriers.
Coming to
the vote winners the TNA, can they continue to stand by their Manifesto, which
is a demand for a separate Eelam in the North ?
It is
ridiculous for them to be presumptive having got an unprecedented support from
the voters, to demand a separate Eelam within a Unitary Sri Lanka.
Sri Lanka cannot have two different people
within one unitary state, but a one people in the one unitary state. Therefore, TNA has to decide to come down to
earth and accept that the Tamils are a
people among others in Sri Lanka.
Viswanathan
Rudra Kumaran, and Farther S.J.Emmanuel
cannot set foot in the North of Sri Lanka to make of it a separate Eelam. North
of Sri Lanka is very much a
part of Sri Lanka
despite all the vote the Tamil people in the North gave to TNA.
TNA has
also be alive to the fact that the PC of the North cannot dictate terms as to
how the Military camps should be set up in the North, and has to very well get
used to live with the Soldiers of the
Armed Forces.
TNA cannot
ask any more for land powers as it has already been decided, and the government
should go ahead with new settlements for the displaced Sinhala and Muslim
people, and allow new people from the
South coming to settle down in the North.
It is very
unfortunate we have the so called e-media, like the Lanka-e- news., writing
really disastrously scandalous articles, an
excerpt from which I quote:
“Though the
Medamulana chaurayas ( deceivers) were deeply in their toils blindfolding the
southern modayas (foolish believers ) to conceal their monumental corruption
activities and murderous violence , the representatives of the people of the
north whose eyes are always open and sharp held a media briefing today. The
people of the north had given them the power of a 4/5 th
majority much more than the 2/3 majority needed to expel a governor of the
province. “(lanka-e-news)
These will not help either in the reconciliation of the
Communities or the administration of the Northern PC Council by the TNA
Councillors.
The TNA hawks will have to cool down and try to
be acceptable, intelligent politicians to if they are to make any thing out of
the Newly won PC elections in the North.
Otherwise, the government should step into stop the vain rhetoric and declare the Northern election null and
void and allow the Governor to run it as it had been before.
Such
drastic action we have to take without fearing the reaction of the anti-Sri
Lanka West. China
could not have developed to what it is
to-day, if it did not close the frontiers to the interfering West.
In the mean time it was
reported that :“Four Buddha statues in Murukkan, including two from the ancient temple of Murukkan, have been vandalized, the Mannar Police said. Venerable Walpola Sarana Thera, Chief Incumbent of the Murukkan Temple said some persons, who arrived in the temple around 11 p.m. on Wednesday (25) damaged the statues.”
These are matters that should be taken up by the TNA PC Councillors who should send out a strong message against such vandalism in the North. That is being responsible PC Councillors.
Sampanthan had stated that they are studying the Supreme Court judgement on land powers. This means that they beginnin their PC Councillor role following a confrontational attitude, which does not auger well for the future of the North PC Council.
The Northern P.C.Councillors have to sit down to work for the people of the Norethern Province,; without reacting to favourable and unfavourable issues and ask for remedial solutions from India and the rest of the world. If they are taking their responsibilities seriously, they have to start working with the people and contact the Government in all matters and have a positive dialogue with the Government without acting as if the Government does not exist.
If they start a second round of visits to India, Tamil Nadu, Canada, UK and USA looking for advice as to how to o run the Norther PC detrimentally to the government with an eye for separation, the Government has to take its own corrective action processes.
