Massive opposes which have never happened before are now got emerged in Sri Lanka against the accord signed by Sri Lanka and Indian governments as a settlement to the Eelam Tamils in the year 1987
Mainly the government’s chauvinist’s partnership parties of Alliance are raising objections against “13” and they have taken measures to submit a motion at the parliament appealing to abolish it.
Defense Ministry Secretary, President’s brother Gottabaya Rajapakse and chauvinists Sinhala movements on behalf of the government are expressing opinions against the “13”.
Minority community parties and leftist parties which are membership parties of the government, is supporting to boost the “13”, however the Sri Lanka Freedom party which is the main party of the government, is continuing to maintain silence without revealing its stance.
Government is evading from this situation by giving statements that contradictions amidst a alliance government is a political democracy tradition. This clearly affirm that government will show the green flag to make amendments in the “13”
Reports furnish that government is making efforts to implement a bill to grab the land and police powers existing in the “13” before the northern election.

In this situation if Sri Lanka government attempts to undermine or to abolish the 13th amendment from the constitution, the consequence will be that India would take back Kachchatheevu from Sri Lanka. Concerning this the Delhi high level is strongly discussing.

Indian military intelligence visits Jaffna, Vanni
[TamilNet, Friday, 31 May 2013, 10:18 GMT]
A team of high-ranking Indian military intelligence officials, led by Indian Armed Forces Intelligence Unit Director General R.N. Singh, visited Jaffna and Vanni on Wednesday and Thursday. The team was received by the genocidal Sinhala military occupying the country of Eezham Tamils. The Indian visit, that took place while Rajapaksa delegation was in Beijing and was signing major agreements on money and defence, follows China’s Vice Intelligence Minister’s visit to Jaffna and Trincomalee in April. Any visit of Indian officials is nowadays considered a jinx and is much feared by Tamils in the island, just as they fear sooth-saying persons coming in the middle of the night with curses from the cremation ground, because of the long history of such Indian visits foretelling escalation of miseries during the war and aftermath, commented news sources in Jaffna.
India and genocidal Sri Lanka have military to military relationship.
The commander of the occupying Sinhala military, Maj. Gen. Mahinda Hathurusinghe, first received the visiting team of Indian military intelligence at Palaali in the Sinhala military zone in Jaffna.
At Palaali, the visiting Indian team marked an important imperial ritual of paying homage at a recently opened memorial for the IPKF that had committed war crimes against Tamils quarter a century ago.
The Indian military doesn’t pay homage anymore at the abandoned memorial, remembering soldiers died in the war against Tipu Sultan, erected by its Madras Regiment at the fort of Sri Rangapatna, commented an academic in Jaffna.
After holding talks with the Sinhala commanders in Jaffna, the intelligence team left for Ki’linochchi. In Vanni the team was received by the commanding officer of the occupying Sinhala military headquartered in Vavuniyaa.

Even though it was said that the visiting team was discussing about ‘humanitarian activities’ taking place in the North, news sources said that there were strict orders from the visiting team to the Sinhala military that no news on the deliberations should be revealed.
Tamil media was not allowed to photograph the visit in Jaffna, but photos of the visit to Vavuniyaa were somehow released to Sinhala media in Colombo. In Jaffna, officials of the Indian diplomatic mission had made many restrictions on the release of news in the local media.
The team was on a visit to get first hand experience of the ground situation, commented news sources.
The presence of Indian military intelligence in Vanni during the genocidal massacre is a widely acknowledged secret among the SL military sources.
But this is the first time after the withdrawal of the IPKF in the early 90s that a high-ranking Indian military intelligence team is making an official and open visit to the island, news sources in Jaffna commented.
