The parents of fallen Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) cadres were honoured in Kilinochchi yesterday as the Tamil nation marks Maaveerar remembrance week.
Ilankai Tamil Arasu Katchi (ITAK) MP S Shritharan handed coconut saplings and dry food packages to the parents and families of those who lost their lives in the armed conflict.
Posting on X, Shritharan wrote:
"The only thing that will satisfy parents who have sacrificed their children for this nation is the assurance that we will shape our generation in a way that will not diminish the Tamil national spirit."
Events are taking place across the Tamil homeland and in the diaspora to mark Maaveerar remembrance week.
