Oct 06, Colombo: Extremist Buddhist monk Galagodaaththe Gnanasara Thero, the leader of the Sinhala Buddhist Bodu Bala Sena militant movement said today that a crusade would be launched in Sri Lanka.
Addressing a meeting of the movement held in Anuradhapura, the Buddhist monk blamed the government for allowing the Tamil National Alliance (TNA) to engage in politics.
Introducing TNA as the political front of the militarily defeated rebel Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), Gnanasara Thero said the government should be responsible for the consequences of TNA coming to power in the Northern Provincial Council.
He urged the government to name the Sinhala Buddhist majority as the historic nation of the state.
