US and India to pass another resolution against SL [ Monday, 21 January 2013, 05:24.07 AM GMT +05:30 ] The United States of America and India are exploring to pass another resolution against SriLanka at the upcoming United Nation Human Rights Council session in Geneva in March, Ceylon Today reports. The resolution may be called on the grounds that Sri Lanka has made little progress in implementing the recommendations made in the report of the Lessons Learnt and Reconciliation Commission (LLRC), particularly with regard to setting up investigations into at least the seven or eight specific incidents that they have identified, including the Channel Four video, a reliable source confirmed. It was reported that Secretary to the President, Lalith Weeratunga, has supposedly told a diplomatic gathering that only 35% of the LLRC recommendations have been implemented by the government so far. According to Dr. Paikiasothy Saravanamuttu, Executive Director, Centre for Policy Alternatives (CPA), some of the major areas of the LLRC recommendations are basically ‘untouched’ or considered working on, by the government. “There are lots of new matters getting added for talks and perhaps the impeachment and victimization of ousted Chief Justice, Dr. Shirani Bandaranayake, and the arrest of the Jaffna University students are some questionable issues that may be taken up,” he said. Among the barely touched issues, according Dr. Saravanamuttu, are several major components of the LLRC recommendations – a political settlement has ‘not been touched,’ demilitarization of Northern Sri Lanka and land grabbing from the Tamils, have not been taken up for discussion.
