The leader of Marumalarchi Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (MDMK) Vaiko called upon the Chief Minister Jayalalithaa to initiate steps to pass a resolution in the Assembly opposing any move to carry out a domestic investigation into the alleged atrocities during the war in Sri Lanka in which many Tamil people were killed. “If such a resolution is passed, I will be the first person to support the same,” he said while paying a lightning visit to the site near Palladam where the party planned to hold a conference later this month. Mr. Vaiko told The Hindu that only an inquiry by an independent non-domestic body could bring out justice and truth.(The Hindu)
