Yes, that's part of your evil plan. Next you will introduce Indian currency in Sri Lanka and make this land part of India. All crisis what Sri Lanka had past and present your country plays a major role.

Whoever wishes Sri Lanka to be a United Sri Lanka, then KICK THIS BUGGER MODI out from involving Sri Lanka's affairs.

So you cry for no reason if somebody is helping respect him. India is helping because India doesn't need poor countries in its neighbourhood. blame your own rulers not India
