India must give military help to Sri Lanka if requested - Swamy

Rajya Sabha MP and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) stalwart Dr Subramanian Swamy said India must give military help to Sri Lanka .

Dr . Swamy who is well versed in Sri Lankan politics and a close friend of the Rajapaksa family, asked in a Twitter message how India could allow a mob to overturn a legitimate election.

“Both  Gotabaya and Mahinda Rajapaksha were elected in a free election with thumping majority. How can India allow a mob to overturn such a  legitimate election? Then no democratic country in our neighbourhood will be safe. If Rajapaksa wants India’s military help we must give, “ he tweeted . (Kelum Bandara)
