India: LTTE tells TNA MPs
The advice was given by LTT'E Political Wing leader S. P. Thamilselvan at a meeting with TNA MPs in Kilinochchi. According to Tamil political sources, TNA MPs will visit Tamil Nadu and New Delhi next month for this purpose. With DMK leader M. Karunanidhi and the pro-LTTE Vaiko now close to the Manmohan Singh government, the TNA MPs are likely to work out the new policy through the Tamil Nadu leaders. They are also likely to meet India's new Foreign Minister Natwar Singh and others. The Kilinochchi meeting also decided on a new campaign to pressurise the government to negotiate on the ISGA, the sources said. The awareness campaign beginning in Trincomalee next Saturday will cover all North-East districts to win widespread public support for the ISGA proposals. Mr. Thamilselvan told the MPs that the government was adopting delaying tactics and warned the people were losing patience for the failure to resume peace talks. Government leaders are insisting that the delay is caused by the LTTE's insistence that the ISGA proposals must be taken up first before core issues are discussed. Mr. Thamilselvan also told the TNA to form a group of ten MPs to keep the diplomatic community briefed on developments in the peace process. All eight LTTE district political leaders attended yesterday's meeting. |
