India bluffed LTTE

A couple of years back I happened to come across four Sri Lankan’s Army officers who reveled that their country is passing through a Indian sponsored war with Tamils . They reveled that Velupilla Prabhakaran Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) Chief is one of the world’s most ruthless rebel’s leader.

They also narrated me that thousands of innocent Tamils and Sri Lankan forces have been killed during last few years. Any how, those young army officers were determined to fight insurgency and their faces were revealing that sooner and later they would be throwing out insurgency from the country.

Still I remember that On 61 national day of Sri Lanka, President Mahinda Rajapakse expressed that shadows of terrorism have almost been wiped out with the last remnants of the cornered in a patch of jungle in the islands northeast. At that time, he further stressed while saying “I am confident that the Tigers will be completely defeated in a few days,”. Thus Sri Lankan forces played their final episode and have defeated 37 years old Asian longest insurgency and eliminated LTTE’s Chief Prabhakaran too.

It was 1979 when LTTE has been established with the support of RAW. Sri Lanka even though made many efforts to resolve the issue peacefully but India remained fully involved in backing LTTE and never let the former allowed to go for negotiations. Prabhakaran who began his fight for a separate state for Sri Lanka’s minority Tamils slowly and gradually has became strong rebel leader and started struggle for an independent Tamil State.

The Lankan Leaders were of the opinion that the situation much worse than what it was during the 1987. In 1986/87 full throttle have been imparted to the movement by RAW while establishing 32 LTTE training camp in Kulathur, Salem district, India, By mid 1987, over 20,000 Sri Lankan Tamil insurgents had been provided sanctuary.

A time came when probably Rajive Gandhi came to know about the real motives of Tamil’s leader. He asked his world’s notorious agency RAW to pull her hand out from the Tamils. Rajiv Gandhi also ordered the Indian Peace Keeping Force (IPKF) to fight the LTTE because he realized that Indian government made a blunder while supporting LTTE. The Prime Minster stance was totally against the secret agenda of RAW and thus agency totally behaved opposite and deliberately helped in assassination of Prime Minister through Prabhakaran.

The LTTE chief was arrested but released on bail leaving behind a big questione mark. Basically his bail was arranged by RAW to launch him again for attaining their mission of establishing an independent state of Tamil on Sri Lanka’s piece of land. Maddrass High Court though issued Death Warrants of Prabhakaran earlier but he never been apprehended by professional intelligence agency of India.

India has taken “U Turn “when she came to know that Sri Lankan forces are determined to up root their launched plan and Tamils started facing defeat continuously. The basic aim of India was to keep the Tamils away from the idea of establishing Independent Tamil State on majority’s area i.e. Indian Territory. For this RAW pitched them against Sinhalies and has bluffed innocent Tamils.

The Indian Armed forces used to carry out brutality against Tamils and as per www.tamilnation.com Indian peace keeping forces (IPKF) never felt hesitation of raping Tamil’s women. There are many officers like Lt. Col. Srikant Prasad Purohit who murdered and raped innocent women and Tamil’s male members of the families.

I noted that LTTE and Taliban militants were using same technique while fighting against Pakistan and Sri Lankan Forces. Both were and are using human shields. It means the terrorists have been provided combat and explosives training in Indian and Afghanistan. “Suicide cadres are coming in front of troops in the frontline and exploding themselves,” military spokesman of Sri Lanka, Brigadier Udaya Nanayakkara said.

The government has always remained enthusiastic in waging war while handling LTTE despite involvement of India. Here the question remains, why LTTE didn’t want peace and where was LTTE which was just a militant organization getting all the finances. The deadlock between LTTE and Sri Lanka was occurred because of illegal involvement of India and RAW in Sri Lanka’s internal problems. Any how an excellent and splendid victory has been received by Sri Lanka and Sri Lanka defeated RAW’S Game Plan .But difficult phase of rehabilitation has been started and should be done on war footing. Hundred of thousands Tamils have been displaced and buried in the soil due to the longest war. Same was happened in Swat where more than 2.5 millions people were internally displaced and thousand were killed so far.

The LTTE movement against Sri Lanka do have new political scenario in the region. The chances of creation of Tamil’s state is now much more than earlier , since most of the trained Tamils either became underground or went back to Indian held Tamil Nadu state.

Reportedly, before pushing back and surrendering, LTTE’s leadership has decided to reorganize the movement with changed brand and go for an already perceived Tamil State on Indian Territory. Thus it’s quite right that India is going to reap as she has sowed for Sri Lanka and other regional countries.

Reportedly, there are more than 100 liberation movements which are struggling for the rights of self determination in their respective states. Out of these liberation movements, Kashmir, Khalistan, Mezzo Tribes, Assam and Tamils are on the top of the list. But unfortunately India is busy in spreading state terrorism against Sikhs, Muslims and christens rather than resolving their internal ethnic problems.

Bangladesh mutiny, Dlai Lama and Tamils problems and interference in FATA area of Pakistan are showing clear cut involvement of New Delhi. Let’s hope that Dr. Manmohan Sing should be able to stop her notorious agency from her malicious activities against neighboring countries.

At the same times Sonia Gandhi should also detail some inquiry to find out the actual cause of the death of her husband along with the responsibly.

With its extinction from Sri Lanka, the LTTE cadres may pose a serious threat to integrity of India. But Indian military will take no time in defeating the LTTE.

Don’t compare LTTE with Taliban. LTTE is struggling against racial discrimination of Tamils in Sri Lanka. Taliban is fighting for the hegemony of Muslims throughout the world which is impossible.

Wasn't the LTTE pro India at the ouset? Does anybody know that the first batch of terrorists, including the late Kuttimani was trained in Algeria? Some of these goons were trained in Libya. Some are , hiding in Malaysia, Indonesia, Bangkok, not to forget Norway and Sweden.

In the past even LTTE had training and support in India. Remember in the 80's Prabhakaran used to live in India. There is no point in saying he mostly stayed in TN, because it is very much a part of India. If the Indian govt had denied, he couldn't have stayed in TN also. The bad thing about LTTE is that they have no qualms in turning against their dearest friend, that is India. When he attacked IPKF and conspired and killed Rajiv Gandhi he sowed the seeds for his eventual defeat.

Shame on India! India has the blood of 6500 Tamil civilians, including hundreds of children killed in just 3 months! Tamil Eelam will not lead to seperation of Tamil Nadu....These kind of idiotic fears are the main reason for Indias dirty proxy war. Truth will prevail. History will never forgive India.

What a lesson to be learnt from this! India trained LTTE in the 70s and then sent a Peace Keeping Force to Sri Lanka only to find that LTTE turned against them. First they assassinated Indian Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi and then the Indian Peace Keeping Force (IPKF) came home with 1500 dead Indian Soldier bodies.The Tamil Diasporas in USA UK and Canada collected millions of dollars for LTTE to buy arms and ammunition to fight against the Sri Lanka government to find that few months ago LTTE used these arms against their own Tamil brothers and sisters to hold them as a Human Shield.Those who live by the sword will die by the sword. Certainly the Sri Lankan government has shown the world “How to do it”World governments now must take notice of Sri Lankan government strategies and know how to eradicate Terrorism. A job well done for the betterment and for a peaceful world.

Sri lanka as a nation had enough suffering for the monster India created in the 70' and 80'.

As a result were stuck with a murderous and a killer organization for more that 30 years.

Please note that India is also responsible for the every blood shed that is occuring and occured before.

India cannot deny this fact and sri lanka paid a high price for this deadly mistake.

Can’t help but note that this is 1) a badly researched article and 2) the author is clearly reflecting a Pakistani perception of India

RAW and ISI do not operate similarly to begin with. RAW reports into the Indian Prime Minister directly, ISI on the other hand reports into the Pakistani Army Chief. Hence to suggest that RAW had in indirect hand in the assassination of Rajeev Gandhi can at best be a Pakistani interpretation coloured by their experience of ISI.

It is however absolutely factual that India stoked the Tamil separatist movement till 1987. Rajeev’s assassination marked the point of no return.

But yet again to suggest that India stoked the Eelam movement to pre-empt the creation of a separate Tamil state on Indian territory is yet another very Pakistani interpretation.

The real reason lies in the Realpolitic situation in the 70s.

While on the one hand Bandarnaike and Sri Lanka were busy turning Sri Lanka into a Sinhala country they were also blundering on another front. They had agreed to US demands to set up a Voice of America Radio Transmitter on Sri Lankan soil. On the cards in addition was a US Naval Base in Trincomali.

The US was the a rabid cold war enemy of India in the 1970s. The despatch of the US 7th Fleet to the Indian Ocean in 1971 was still fresh in the minds of India’s policy makers. A US Naval base in Trincomali was literally the last straw.

This is when the RAW stepped in with Indira Gandhi’s blessings and used the Tamil discontent wrought by Sinhala chauvinism and stoked up trouble. (This should be familiar to a Pakistani author. This is pretty much what happened in erstwhile East Bengal).

By the way New Delhi was never a staunch LTTE sympathizer. India was hand and glove with the EPRLF. Prabhakaran gunned down and wiped out the EPRLF and indeed all other competing Tamil groups to ensure that LTTE was the sole representative of Tamil aspirations in Sri Lanka.

This ruthlessness and passion to be the Dictator of Tamil Eelam is what eventually lead to his reneging on the 1987 accord and subsequently Rajeev’s assassination.

And finally ofcourse the end of the Eelam dream.

Would urge Mia Zahrul Hassan to refurbish his education in Political Science in an institute beyond the borders of Pakistan to get a wider view of the world.

Beautifully said Kaustav and very true. I have always noticed that Zaheerul's only target is to spread hate against India without any facts and proofs given by him. But people are not fool enough. They can find those facts for themselves and see the reality.


So Zaheerul, i ask you to not to use this platform as medium to spread hatred for India. And yes if you have anything to write about against India, please provide with the facts and the links to prove them.

Until then, don't bother us.

Kaustav and Gaurav,

There is no need in getting involved in any kind of conflict with this guy because he is another brainwashed Pakistani, who is totally anti-india.

But yes my request to the readers is that in case he is not providing you with the proofs, please research on the topic before coming to a conclusion.

And Zaheerul, i agree with gaurav that stop using this platform to spread hatred.

Friend Zaheerul, it’s easy to preach but difficult to practice I guess. While it’s uplifting to hear that you have nothing against the Indian Nation your writings and views seem to suggest the opposite.

You seem to be under the (universal Pakistani) spell that India is an evil nation with hegemonists and war mongering hawks pushing the region towards war.

However, the world seems to believe that it’s just the other way round. Has it ever occurred to you that if every author, statesman and leader in the world is of the view that Pakistan is a terror sponsoring or at least terrorist sheltering nation and that India is a shining example of democracy, secularism and rule of law there must be some truth in it.

Read the book ”The True Face of Jihadists inside Pakistan’s Network of terror” It’s written by your countryman (and a patriot) Mr Amir Mir. You will realise that RAW and India are hardly the ones trying to push the region towards war. And if you are willing to listen to your own countryman at least you may begin wondering whether all that you have been made to believe are really true. And that ISI is no Sufi Saint..

Are you aware of the butchery the Pakistani Nation indulged in erstwhile East Pakistan..India does not live with a shame like that.

As regards Kashmir, like it or not the only possible solution is that you keep POK and we keep the rest of the Kashmir Valley, Leh and Jammu. The faster you reconcile to that reality the faster we will all live in peace.

No, don’t preach about the 1948 UN Resolution in Kashmir because that only means you are not aware of what the Resolution was.

The Resolution stated that
1) Pakistan must vacate the occupied areas of Kashmir
2) There be a plebiscite to decide the fate Kshmiris

Since Pakistan never complied with Part I and agreed at the 1972 Simla Agreement to resolve the issue bilaterally the only solution possible is what i have already spelt out (in English) - you keep ours and we keep ours.

Cheers
