Common opposition candidate's 'trilingual policy'...

At the common opposition candidate's inaugural rally in Polonaruwa, efforts to portray a 'trilingual policy' failed as the main sign on stage read with multiple errors in Tamil.

The sign should have read: ஒரு வானத்தின் கீழ் ஒரே விளை நிலமாக எமது நாடு.

Sri Lanka is one of the most dangerous places in the world to be a journalist. Tamil journalists are particularly at threat, with at least 41 media workers known to have been killed by the Sri Lankan state or its paramilitaries during and after the armed conflict.

Despite the risks, our team on the ground remain committed to providing detailed and accurate reporting of developments in the Tamil homeland, across the island and around the world, as well as providing expert analysis and insight from the Tamil point of view
