Speaking to Tamil Guardian, one of the organisers V Prabhakaran said,
“India has been betraying the Tamils. During 2009, they helped Sri Lanka by supplying radar equipment and more. Even now they are giving military training. And just a few days ago India supported Sri Lanka at the UN.”
“India must decide whether what is more important - Tamil Nadu or Sri Lanka”.
He went on to add that “for the sake of innocent Tamils who lost their life in the genocide” the students of Tamil Nadu would continue their protests”.
