Sri Lankan Tamils Lives Returned To Normalcy?

I have been posting articles on the repression of the Tamils in Sri Lanka,The Genocide and lack of progress in the resettlement of the Tamils in Sri Lanka, post the civil war and LTEE era.

I still hold the same views on the culpability of the Rajapakshe Government in the massacre of the Tamils in Sri Lanka.

Regarding developmental activities in Sri Lanka post Civil War, as I mentioned in my earlier posts, there is scant and vague information in the internet,

The tales of atrocities continue.

However, normally very credible Thuglak, a Tamil Fortnightly, run by Mr, Cho Ramaswamy, Satirist and Political Commentator, has been running a series of articles being reported by its Reporter, SJ Idhaya, who has visited Sri Lanka, which states that war normalcy has returned ,people are going about their normal activities and are relieved to be rid of the LTTE Threat.

Excerpts.

Killinochi,Pudukkudiruppu,Mullaiththeevu and Vavuniya have returned to normalcy.

People used to dig holes in the houses, hide children to save them from being recruited by The LTTE.

The women who were interviewed had admitted that they have joined the Sri LankanArmy and that there has been no force.

The people are not threatened nor are they being mistreated by the Army.

Tamils Resettlement Sri Lanka After Genocide

2.The Government has announced training programmes for The Tamils.

Tamil Girls are molested and Tamil men return with fear truly terrified.

3.Religious Freedom,Attacks on Muslims.

Though the Sri Lanka Government speaks of tolerance; the reality is otherwise.

Muslims were made to go against the Tamils and after the Genocide Muslims have become the target of attacked by the Buddhist extremists.(read my spot )

This is what The Institute on Religious and Public Policy has to say in its 2012 Report.
