The Tamil National Alliance (TNA) outlined today that it would not engage in the government Parliament Select Committee (PSC) on the National issue as the Sri Lankan government had failed to fulfill previous promises.
Responding to recommendations from the Indian Foreign Secretary, Sujatha Singh, who told the Sir Lankan government to engage with the TNA and reach a political settlement through the 13th Amendment and the PSC, the TNA MP, MA Sumanthiran, reiterated that the Government failed to allow the current Northern Provincial Council to function fully, let alone implement the promise of the 13th amendment.

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
