Jawaharlal Nehru University marks Tamil Genocide Remembrance Day

An event was held at the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) in Delhi on Saturday to commemorate Tamil Genocide Remembrance Day.

The students prepared and distributed Mullivaikkal kanji, held a vigil, and lit candles in memory of those who were murdered by Sri Lankan security forces 15 years ago.

Students also demanded that an independence referendum be conducted.

The event took place alongside others across the Tamil homeland and around the world, to mark 15 years since the killing of tens of thousands of Tamils.
