There Aren’t Two Equal Nations (Or More) In Sri Lanka


Rejoinder to Prof. Laksiri Fernando
| by Dayan Jayatilleka
( April 15, 2014, Colombo, Sri Lanka Guardian) Laksiri feigns surprise that I sought to place Kumar David and him in the same category and rebut them in the same polemic. The reason should be obvious: they both defend Chief Minister Wigneswaran’s claim of Tamil nationhood and make the same claim themselves with some modifications. I reject it.
