FOR A CAUSE: PMK founder S. Ramadoss and Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi president Thol. Tirumavalavan raising slogans against Sri Lanka’s anti-Tamil policy, in Chennai on Thursday. CHENNAI: The DMK government should take up the Sri Lankan Tamils issue with the Centre, Pattali Makkal Katchi founder-leader S. Ramadoss said here on Thursday. Addressing PMK and Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi (VCK) volunteers, Dr. Ramadoss said the DMK should take a cue from the Communist Party of India, which had passed a resolution at its national conference in Hyderabad, demanding immediate intervention by the Centre on the issue. The Tamil Nadu Assembly should adopt a similar resolution. “Let the State government wake up from its slumber and remind the Centre that 40 MPs are from Tamil Nadu.” Tamils in the State were ready to give any price for finding a solution to the Sri Lankan Tamils’ issue, he said. Regretting there was no change in the country’s policy favouring Sri Lanka, Dr. Ramadoss said a favourable climate prevailed now and the State should not allow the opportunity to slip away. VCK president Thol.Tirumavalavan urged the Centre to close the Sri Lankan Deputy High Commissioner office in Chennai to protest against Sri Lanka’s anti-Tamil policy. The Tamil Protection Movement led by him would not remain a silent spectator to the “atrocities of island government” on Tamils. “Retrieve Katchathivu”Urging the Centre to take steps to retrieve Katchathivu, he said it was the only solution to protect Tamil Nadu fishermen. The State should urge the Centre to impress upon the Sri Lankan government to stop military action against Tamils.
