Former member of the Northern Provincial Council Durairasa E. Ravikaran said that the exploitation of the resources of Eelam fishermen was a continuation of the genocide.
The continuing exploitation of the resources of Eelam Tamil fishermen by the illegal encroachment of Tamil Nadu fishermen in Eelam waters has severely affected the livelihoods of Eelam Tamil fishermen in an environment where Eelam Tamils are struggling to recover from immense genocide.
It builds on a continuum of genocide. Do the Tamil Nadu state government and pro-people activists accept such a violation?
Immediate and honest actions of the Tamil Nadu state government and the people’s movement could prevent the exploitation of the resources of Eelam fishermen and end the conflict between the two sides, he added.
