The Tamil National Alliance spokesperson told the visiting US Assistant Secretary of State for South and Central Asia, Nisha Biswal, that only an international mechanism will ensure justice for the Tamil people, adding that the new Sri Lankan government was not paying attention to the Tamil people’s concerns.
“We have pointed out, that even when the Tamils have hugely contributed to form the new government; the government has not paid enough attention to bring solution for the Tamils’ issue. Though submission of necessary documents has been made to the new government, it has not acted upon it," the spokesperson, Mr Premachandran said to the press following the meeting on Tuesday.
“Ms Biswal heard our requests and assured us that they will be raised with the government,” he added.
