AI SUMMARY GENERATED ONLY FROM THIS ARTICLE'S TEXT.
Sri Lankan High Commissioner Prasad Kariyawasam has said that India will be isolated if Prime Minister Manmohan Singh doesn't attend the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting.
This came as the Tamil Nadu Assembly passed a resolution asking the Prime Minister not to attend the meet in Sri Lanka. Speaking to CNN-IBN, Kariyawasam said, "If PM Singh doesn't go, we have to think about who it will affect. Who will be isolated? Every other country barring Canada is attending.
So those who don't attend will be in isolation." "The Tamil Nadu Assembly is uninformed on the status of Tamils and eventually, the decision on PM Singh's visit is prerogative of Indian government only," he added.
The resolution passed unanimously by the Tamil Nadu Assembly says no Indian representative should must attend the meet and that Sri Lanka should be suspended from the Commonwealth until Sri Lankan Tamils are granted independence. Many Tamil Nadu politicians including Shipping Minister GK Vasan have been pushing for India to boycott the meeting. (IBNLive) ►WATCH

A slap of higher duties on crappy maruti's, tata's and ashoks will make your holier than thou india back peddle. Remember the last budget where this happenned and india quickly extended credit lines to SL and also allowed imports into India from SL on previously banned items????? SL will gain much by sidelining India. This is the thought of many business establishments in SL other than the ass kissing politicians.... Time is right for SL to shut out India once and for all. Last time I recall the auto makers went to meet the turbanated puppet to put pressure on SL. That did not work. SHUT INDIA OUT FOR GOOD ONCE AND FOR ALL SL!!!!!!

Any other countries not attending ? Canada is the second largest country in the world.

2nd largest in geographical size, but India is the 2nd largest in population and is strategically far more important to SL than Canada. Strategically Canada is almost irrelevant to SL. India on the other hand can make or break SL.
