Australian Tamils commemorate Maaveerar Naal



Hundreds of Tamils gathered in Melbourne and Sydney to mark Maaveerar Naal last week, a day of remembrance for the lives lost in the Tamil struggle.

Held at the Springvale Town hall in Melbourne, lamps were lit and flowers laid at the portraits of Tamil cadres, as dances, poems and songs were performed in remembrance.

Meanwhile, hundreds also gathered in Syndey to pay their respects to those who sacrificed their lives.
