Karunanidhi can have Eelam in India: Gota
Defence Secretary Gotabaya Rajapaksa yesterday said if DMK Leader and former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi’s unfulfilled dream was a Tamil Eelam, he should work for it in India because the largest population of Tamils live in the Tamil Nadu state of India and not in Sri Lanka.
“A much bigger population of Tamils live in Tamil Nadu in India than the Tamil population in Sri Lanka. If Karunanidhi wants a Tamil Eelam he can have it in Tamil Nadu. He should not come to make Eelams in Sri Lanka. This is a sovereign country. We consider those who talk about Eelam as terrorists,” the Defence Secretary told the Daily Mirror.
The Defence Secretary expressed these views responding to a statement made by india’s DMK party President and former Tamil Nadu chief minister M. Karunanidhi to the effect that India should urge the United Nations to bring pressure on Sri Lanka to hold a referendum regarding Tamil Eelam in Sri Lanka. Karunanidhi wields significant political power with the Indian Central Government as his political party is a significant constituent of the Indian Congress led ruling alliance – the UPA.
“There is no war now in Sri Lanka. There exists ethnic harmony and every one lives peacefully. Karunanidhi should not attempt to arouse the Tamil people in Sri Lanka. Karunanidhi is also one among the many Indian politicians who are bent on destroying our country by making controversial statements. It is a pity that they are adopting to such low political tactics. Karunanidhi should realize that ours is an independent country and should not attempt to establish Eelam, and if he wishes he could do so in Tamil Nadu where a larger concentration of Tamil people live,” the Defense Secretary further stated.

Well said Hon GR!. This is what I have been voicing all along.
Tamil Nadu CM and previous CM are merely playing poilitics to inflame minds of TN Tamils to gain votes and to divert their minds from taking issues with their own travails in TN of social, political and moral problems. They dare not suggest autonomy for the 70 million Tamils in TN, lest Central Govt comes heavily down on them. It is easier for them to play the SL card to request devolution first for less than 2 million Tamils in N and E, and eventually autonomy.
It is easier to play SL card for devolution for SL Tamils, so that it benefits TN Tamils to migrate to SL to increase the number of Tamils in SL and to eventually to take path of militancy to achieve ultimate objective of capturing whole of SL for Tamil Nadu, for a larger Tamil Nadu, with all the benefits of natural and human resources and fertile lands. Whole of India is a dry barren land not suitable for cultivation, except Kerala, which is green with tropical forest and rain fall.
CM in TN is continually harping on totally false allegations of war crimes etc during the final battle to eliminate completely the LTTE terrorism from SL. TN is keeping alive this cannard for their own devious objectives. We are not stupid to fall for it. Our people are not a walkover as these morons in TN believe.
Manmohan Singh failed to be a true and loyal friend to SL. Like his predecessors he has stabbed us in the back, by voting for the US sponsored vote against SL in the UNHRC debate. It is spurious to blame it on TN pressure. MMS has failed to live up to truth.
From Indira Gandhi onwards the Gandhi family has been our enemy. They have an ulterior motive of annexing SL for India one day through TN. They are flexing their military muscle now. They have successfully tested a long range ICMB to prove they can destroy China, Russia and Europe with their nuclear capability. China and Russia are not sitting ducks. They can equally well destroy India easily if India picks a fight with these super powers.
Hiding under the skirts of USA will not save India. All these joint naval, military exercises with USA will not help India. China and Russia are also alert and monitoring these exercises to evaluate their strength.
Isn’t it time we ally ourselves totally with China and Russia who has stood by us against imperial West and the LTTE terrorism, who were subtly supported by the imperial West? Let us grant China a base in Trinco in return for defence of SL against India and USA, if they dare to threaten SL with military adventure. Let China arm us with modern aircraft, ships and military technology. Let our defence forces be trained by China and Russia.
I hope Hon President and Defence Sec pay heed to my request before it is too late.
Dear Sir,
It is commendable that you are attempting for an unitary country. If UNP were in power, they would have separated the country by now.
But you leave us an empty country without our heredity, ancient wealth and antiques.
Why Sri Lanka defense Ministry and Intelligent sections can’t find the main antiques lost in museum with thieves ?
If you defeated most brutal terrorists in the world, this job of finding thieves of museum theft could be a Montessori work.
Dear Sir, we not worry about Karunanidi because of you are Defence Secretary in our country.
Nicolas D.
Have you got kicked by K.nidi while you having a deep sleep..? If So, well done K.Nidi & he got you awakened though he’s nidi. What did you do these days in silence..?
But Just hang on for now & without going for a world war….!
Gotabaya sir, your reply is excellent.that is the reality and real answer to Karunanidhi who try to create terrorits again in sri lanka.Karuna.. definitely nindhi(sleeping).I ask him to wake up and watch the world around that what’s going on.
Well done, Rajapaksa Goatabhaya,
That was a spirited defence of our unitary state which will aways remain united despite pressure from the west.
The tamils in India are extremely contented under Delhi’s rule and have never sought self-determination. Hence, there’s no need to advice them to seek separation. In fact, a call for an independent state in India amounts to treason which is punishable by a death sentence. Watch out on such advice.
It is only “Tamil terrors” (Amden’s language) who live frustrating lives in western countries who are hankering after Ealam despite the demise of the “Tamil Tiger Terror” supremo, Late Mr Prabakaran Vellipillau.
Now that the tigers have been vanquished there are many new goats (or rather wolves in sheep’s clothing) in this game. Some of the goats wear dog collars and others, in dark business suits.
As long as Rajapaksa Goatabhaya is in charge of defence, our borders and territorial integrity are guaranteed.
We the sinhala, fought for for independence and we the sinhala shall preserve that independence forever.
Long live Rajapaksa Goatabhaya.
Dear sir!
Your the back born man well said sir to Karunanidhi.Unfortunity we have much traitors politicians and others that´s why we can´t do anythings goodness our country.LTTE terror network still working abroad.
Long live Mr Gotabaya Rajapaksa!
karunanidhi playing political games.
Well done. That is a great, brief reply.
Frankly and Honestly, Great Sir !!
Pathetic Karu, ” I dare not say, go ahead and dive if you dare ! ”
One more thing to add in Hon. GR’s up-front statement as a typical Sri Lankan with due backbone, head’s up as always and chest is forward as usual :
” Karunanidhi is also one among the many Indian politicians who are bent on destroying our country by making controversial statements. It is a pity that they are adopting to such low political tactics….. <> “

Idols with no morale to be followed and inspired worthy for stink, junk and garbage”
AU,
You call yourself ” We the Sinhala fought for independence ….” but it showcases the underlying truth in your authenticity and patriotism, is thoroughly just on the paper, I dare say that you will not and never be a genuine sinhala, by calling that bloody-thirsty, viciously brute Prabakaran as ” Mr. “, when you even can’t announce and respect GR in ” Mr. ” !!
Even mouth speaks nonsense, tongue never lies and as well as, toungue does not have bones, so will turn either side, in the direction of benefit!
Patriotism will not just flow from composing and text on paper, it must be inherent from your generations and background with the actions really put in place for the nation of SL including welfare to be done on disabled war heroes, lost precious lives of soldiers, their love-lonely children with unforeseen future and the courageous widows of those written forever their names by flesh and blood among the pages of history in creating a peaceful motherland !
Don’t be fear for death now, atleast, as Prabakaran is no more, you can call and announce him ” Most Ruthless-Brutal-Barbarian Psychopath ” ( Not at all a Freedom Fighter or a Rebel) !!!
Dear Sir,
when I reading Indian news, I also feel same, I also speak to Indian Tamil same. dear sir you also speck same. you are grate

Hi Nicholas,
It is nice to see a colomn from you. I have not seen much from you recently and I was wondering if you were ok.In Fact I just asked Amden if he had heard anything about you.
You are abosultely tight as always. Some of these guys do not know the meaning of patriotism.THey are only interested in criticising the government for every thing that happens in the country.I have never herad any aone of these idiots who criticise MR and his govenrment ever acknowledge any of the good things that MR has done.I think it is time we all put on our Sri Lankan hats and forget the party. If our people can’t see what India is trying to do then we will perish.
