Two trains reached the Kilinochchi railway station after 23 years on Sunday August 11. The train service to Kilinochchi came to an end in July 1990. This achievement of resumption of train service was made possible because of Indian financial aid and reconstruction efforts. Pix by S.K.Prasath

This is another achievement of President Ranil. A part of a nation secluded, by selfish politicians who benefited by building a wall between two major races. Did these politicians secluded themselves? No. They have luxury bungalow in the north to stay when they visit north. They worship Hindu gods, visiting Thriupathy, they even conduct business transactions with Tiger leaders.
