Chennai: Members of the revived Teso (Tamil Eelam supporters organization) led by DMK treasurer M. K. Stalin will go on a two-day tour to New Delhi from today (28) urging the Centre and other nations to expedite rehabilitation of war-hit Eelam Tamils

A statement issued by the DMK Parliamentary party leader T. R. Baalu said the team would personally meet and urge Union external affairs minister Salman Khurshid and ambassadors of 47 UN member nations to prevail over Sri Lanka to implement the resolution of UN Human Rights Commission to hasten the rehabilitation of the war-hit Eelam Tamils and find an early political solution there.

The team comprising DK president K. Veeramani, VCK leader Thol Tirumavalavan, professor Subha Veerpandian and former Union minister Subbulakshmi Jagadeesan will leave to the national capital on Sunday.

Referring to the 14 resolutions adopted at the Teso conference at Chennai on August 12, 2012 and subsequent representations made with the UN deputy general secretary Yan Lia Sen by Stalin earlier, the statement said that Teso led by DMK chief M. Karunanidhi has decided to approach the UN member nations to urge UN to exert more pressure on Lanka to change the prevailing situation in the Island nation and restore the political, economic and cultural rights of Eelam Tamils there.

If you are so worried about Tamil in SL,why do not ask them to come to TN and give them more comfort than SL.
This Jokers are busy for nothing.

Don't drag Muslims into this. Everyone knows you use the name 'Ahmed' to hoodwink the readers.
