While responding to Prime Minister Narendra Modi\u2019s Katchatheevu remark, Congress leader P Chidambaram on April 01 said that the PM should talk about the live issues. He also said that China has occupied 2,000 km2 of Indian territory and the Prime Minister gave a clean chit to China.He said, Honourable Prime Minister raked up an issue that was settled in 1974 and 1976. 50 years ago, we had acknowledged that the small island of 1.9 km2 fell on the Sri Lankan side of the International boundary line. That was after many years of negotiations. Now that was done in order to help 6 lakh Sri Lankan Tamils who are suffering in Sri Lanka without citizenship without human rights, without voting rights. Those Sri Lankan Tamils were brought back and settled in India, they have lived here for 50 years. Why is the PM raking up that issue. Why does he not talk about what happened in the last two to three years. China has occupied 2,000 km2 of Indian territory and the Prime Minister gave a clean chit to China\u2026but the PM should talk about the live issue and the live issue is 2000 km2 of Indian territories occupied by China.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
