    Useless lodging a protest with the Indian HC. Inform Miliband or Human Rights Commission about human rights violations by not allowing you to enter India.

    What protest? To resume VIP treatment or to get visa fees returned. ' The fees once paid will not be returned'

    He has lost all the respect he had. Poor chap - rejected by the Tamils. The indirect support he received from the government, has also gone. The Indians don't want him as they view him a threat. If he had stuck with the TNA, he would have been an MP by now.
