In the wake of Mumbai coming under the terror attack, Minister of
Foreign Employment Promotion and Welfare and Defence spokesman Keheliya
Rambukwella has called for greater cooperation among the South Asian
countries to combat terrorism more forcefully than in the past.
Commenting on the Mumbai mayhem in his capacity as the Defence
spokesperson Minister Rambukwella told the Sunday Observer that it was
the SAARC nations that have been badly hit by terrorism in the world.
“Sri Lanka has been fighting against terrorism for the past thirty
years.
The meetings Mr. Mano Ganeshan came to attend in Toronto was a meeting which was well planned and courier graphed by LTTE
fronts in Toronto according to the orders of Wanni to make a big noise
about IDPs in Wanni. Their plan in India may have some success due to
racist Tamil political parties in Tamilnadu; but rest of the world is
not.
Torrential rain and floods made the road to Kilinochchi more difficult for the troops engaged in the humanitarian operation in the Wanni. Here a group of soldiers brave the floods on an almost impassable road. Pic:Rukmal Gamage
