Sri Lanka lifts ban on six Tamil diaspora organizations. The Government of Sri Lanka has lifted the ban imposed on six international Tamil organizations by the previous Government”.

In my opinion this is a very serious and dangerous a move against the National Security of this country. that will have far reaching implications. Because obviously it opens the gates for a resurrection of the LTTE. Which mean the present Government has betrayed the 2009 May victory over the most cruel and dangerous Terrorist outfit in the world.

Therefore, in the first place,  I would like to find out as to on whose direction this decision was taken.at a time the whole  country  is on fire with far more serious national problems the Gov has to tackle first as priority business in order to overcome human suffering and a major uprising.  whether this decision has got the approval of the Cabinet and the Parliament. Also has to be probed

If the answer is no, then the President has to withdraw his decision immediately and restore it to its previous status quo. If the President refuse to do so then the Parliament may have to take firm decision in the name of the Security of the country.

None of the MPP who disagree with such course of action is fit to be in Parliamen.t
