 With the recent rise of LTTE activities in Tamil Nadu, the Congress Party has requested the State Government to take stern action against political parties and organizations supporting the proscribed terrorist movement. Several incidents have been reported from Tamil Nadu where organizations and individuals openly and actively supported the LTTE terrorists through various channels.
Participating in a discussion on the motion of thanks to the Governor for his address to the assembly, senior legislator, C Gnanasekaran of the Congress Party cited reports that 102 LTTE cadres had infiltrated into the state during the last two years and that cases had been filed against 40 of them under the National Security Act, Indian media reports.
Recalling the recent arrest of LTTE intelligence wing leader Thambidurai Parameswaran and others, who allegedly attempted to procure arms and material for the LTTE, he questioned the "inaction" of the state's intelligence, sources said.
Stating that the LTTE had also killed several Tamils, Gnanasekaran wondered how some parties and organizations in the state were openly supporting the outfit.
Mr. Gnanasekaran requested the Government to ban such organizations and completely curb their activities in Tamil Nadu and elsewhere in India.
Meanwhile reiterating that Congress party would never forgive the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) for "assassinating" former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi, he urged the Tamil Nadu Government to take to steps to bring LTTE leader V Prabakaran to India to face trial in the assassination case.
