It is tragic that India is participating in a Seminar in Sri Lanka on Defence issues.
The massacre of Tamils in Sri Lanka does not seem to matter.
Nor the issue of illegal shooting Tamil Nadu Fishermen matter.
When a country can not ask a country not to attack its citizens,or prevent its Ethnic group being subject to Genocide,what is the point in talking about Defence?
You can not protect your citizens, but you are prepared to protect the Citizens of another country!
Those Tamil Leaders who raised hue and cry over the training of Sri Lankan Airmen in Chennai,are they aware of this?
Curiously the said Airmen from Sri Lanka have been sent to Bangalore, India, for training.
Which State is not in India,Tamil Nadu or Karnataka?
Read the Related article, where the Sri Lankan Minister declares that the Tamils have no place in Sri Lanka.

Absolutely Sir… Very valid points. This leads into the other topic which was beautifully covered by an author in The Hindu recently – Can India ever be a super power. It is only the flirty statements made by other countries or sometimes made by our own media gags. A country which does not have the ability to protect its own citizens or put its foot down and dictate terms with other countries on any matter for that matter can never become a super power. Just because we have a growing population and a growing economy, can never make us the super power. Not even a regional power. Not even a local power. But to your point, some say that the reason why we are not able to make a big hue and cry about Tamil issues in Srilanka is because how INdia has handled Kashmir Issues. It is said that there a lot of human rights violation in Kashmir and other parts of our country in the east like Chattisgarh and assam that we are affraid to open up this issue.
