We cannot permit any longer, anyone snatching the Tamil people’s birth rights. Powers should come to our hands. It is essential that powers should come to our hands to live as equal to the Sinhala community.
Such statements were expressed by Tamil National Alliance Leader R.Sambanthan yesterday Saturday morning at a discussion held in his residence. He addressed concerning the local council's peripheries re-assignment and contemporary situation.
In his statement, he further said, the international society cannot give up its task, because still the human rights violations are continuing. Activities should continue to bring an end to the human rights violations.
It is not urgency for the government to find a settlement to the Tamils crisis. However, it is essential for the Tamil people to get a political settlement. People should be partners of this country's sovereignty.
Under the present state system, it will not be possible. A situation should shortly arise, and a political settlement should be met, for which we are much certain.
We trust the American State officials’ panel will submit a report at the UN Human Rights Council assembly which is held in year 2013 March, being aware of the current situation in Sri Lanka.
America, India and international community after holding discussions with Tamil National Alliance, are still urging the Sri Lanka government to find a political settlement. In this issue, the International community is very clear. But government is not in a state of heeding and processing.
We cannot permit anyone to snatch the birth rights of Tamil people. We want the powers to our hands. Powers should come to Tamil peoples' hands to live as equal citizens. In the forthcoming months, there may be changes to the current state, was mentioned by him.
