The controversial film ‘Madras Café’, which has created a stir in several countries including India, is being shown in Jaffna city and in places such as Chavakatcheri, Chunnakam and Nelliaddy through the giant LCD screens erected in these places.

The giant LCD screens were earlier used to show documentaries on development work progress by the Government and the armed forces. (S. K. Prasath)

    Nobody can achieve reconciliation by showing Madras cafe,the only possiblity to achieve the above is to punish the perpetrators in internatinal court including LTTE,SOLDIERS,PARA MILITARY,and MUSLIM HOME GUARDS.

    What is the purpose of showing them? Does anybody believe it will help for reconciliation?

    Kiris Baba Amaray Tuesday, 24 September 2013 03:54 AM

    The Government has the right to question on this issue and conduct a open investigation.

    BuffaloaCitizen Tuesday, 24 September 2013 03:29 AM

    Then why not show movies on 1956, 1977 and 1983 riots?

    grumpy Tuesday, 24 September 2013 01:31 AM

    They just want to irritate the jaffna ppl. So stupid of the government to do this.

    reader Tuesday, 24 September 2013 12:00 AM

    the people need to be reminded of what LTTE used to do before they were defeated because some still dont agree that they were a terrorist group via DM Android App

    doesn't the govt. have anything more important than screening movies. if anybody wants to watch this movies they will do so on their own.

    nada Tuesday, 24 September 2013 12:43 AM

    govt has still not learnt a lesson-why are they humiliating the people like this

    Exorcistst Tuesday, 24 September 2013 12:06 AM

    These type of antagonizing and hurting the feelings of a community should stop. It's not correct to force things on. People who does not like it.
