Sri Lanka's new parliament must find solution to 'long-pending demands' of Tamils says DMK Chief

The head of the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) party in Tamil Nadu urged Sri Lanka’s newly elected parliament to find a permanent solution to the issues faced by Tamils on the island, reports Times of India.

Noting that the 16 seats secured by the Tamil National Alliance would be influential in Sri Lanka’s parliament, M Karunanudhi, said,


“In this situation, the number of seats secured by the TNA will influence the decisions taken by the new prime minister, and this is a good time for Tamils to take forward their long-pending demands.”
