Why RAW and India supported Tamil fighters in Sri Lanka? (Part 4 of 9) | Savukku Shankar
In this episode of Arinthathil Ariyathathu, Savukku Shankar brings up the History of Why RAW and India supported Tamil fighters in Sri Lanka. How surprisingly though poles apart Indira Gandhi, MGR, Kalaignar along with Indian agencies like RAW, IB came together to support the Tamil cause. Was it a strategic plan to keep US at bay or more of an emotional one to support Tamil Brethren?
Savukku Shankar, who is an Indian journalist, founder and writer of the Tamil news website- Savukku- started in 2010. He now popularly known for his views, content and commentary on politics and social issues of India and Tamil Nadu.

Please make a video on Oil crisis 1973 and how it all affected in India and Cold war affected India including Srilanka.
Nice video Savukku sankar!!
Very apt to discuss history and explore the genesis of events. So nice that we had visionary leaders in the 80s and before though some of policies were not acceptable.
Excellent speech sir.very useful information for this generation
When Dixit explained the wide gap between Tamil aspirations and what Sinhalese-dominated governments were prepared to offer, Bhandari chided him “for not having a positive attitude”. “The punchline in his admonition,” Dixit writes, was that “I must not function in the mindset of Indira Gandhi and G. Parthasarathy period” (page 42). // சவுக்கு சங்கர் சரியாக சரித்திரத்தை புரிந்து விட்டு வந்து ஒரு சபையில் பேசவேண்டும் . இந்திரா காந்தி பார்த்தசாரதி வெங்கடேஸ்வரன் போன்றோர் ஈழத்தமிழர்களுக்கு நியாயமான ஓர் அரசியல் தீர்வை, தமிழ் நாடு மாநிலம் போல கொடுக்கவேண்டுமென விரும்பினார்கள் . இந்திராகாந்தி இறந்ததும் . அரசியலில் அனுபமில்லாத ராஜீவ் காந்தி வந்தார் .இந்த நேரத்தில் ரெண்டு மலையாளிகள் சிவசங்கர் மேனன் ராஜ் நாராயணன் போன்றோர் ஜி .பார்த்தசாரதி வெங்கடேஸ்வரன் ஆகியோர் ஆலோசனைக்கு மாறாக ராஜீவ் காந்திக்கு இலங்கை தமிழர் பிரச்சனை குறித்து ஆலோசனைகள் வழங்கினார்கள் .இந்த மலையாளிகள் நேர்மையான தமிழர்களான ஜி .பார்த்தசாரதி . வெங்கடேஸ்வரன் முதுகில் குத்தினார்கள் . ஆகவே பார்த்தசாரதி வெங்கடேவர்ரான் தங்கள் பதவிகளை Raஜினாமா resign செய்தார்கள் .

Excellent. thanks to know foreign policy of India
I’m a kannadiga
but doing so much violence for tamilians….
is very brutal
as a kannadiga my blood is boiling…..
RAJAPAKSHE AND LANKANS ARE GETTING WHAT THEY SEEDED…..
Thanks brother. Thanks for supporting us. We all are united as Indians.
Norway and the United States were attempting to secure a cease-fire, to negotiate exile for Prabhakaran, and to explore other exit strategies that would effectively keep the LTTE alive to fight another day, po liti cally or militarily. For politicians and leaders in India, whether in Tamilnadu or in Delhi, this was not an acceptable stance or outcome.Despite differences in public posture on the issue in Tamilnadu and Delhi, there was cross-party private understanding on the basics of policy toward Sri Lanka with both the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) party and the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) party, as a result of considerable hard work by Pranab Mukherjee and Narayanan, as I found when I met alone with with very senior Tamilnadu politicians in Chennai, away from the glare of publicity.

never thought of kacha theevu in this angle
pretty ingenious if true
but still I dont like Indira much
she only cared about geopolitics and not the ideology and cause
kachatheevu was given to Sri Lanka in 1974 at that time Sri Lanka was close to India. Srimavo, Sri Lankan prime minister was very close to Indira. After 1978, when Jayawardana took over, he tried to get close to US. So, it was not the reason.
Mgr great legend
More than 500 family’s living in neyveli lankans returns.. They came on MGR period.. So the history is ture..
கிட்டத்தட்ட ஒரு கோடி அல்ல. எம்ஜிஆர் தனது பணக்குடோன காட்டி தேவையானதை எடுத்துக்கொள்ளுங்கள் என சொன்கார். அதே நாள் 2.5 கோடி ரூபா எடுத்துச்செல்லப்பட்டது. மொத்தமாக 4.5 கோடி கொடுக்கப்பட்டது.
Nice chappa kattu for handing over Kacha theevu – after receiving the land – what is the guarantee that even that piece of land will not be used for activities against India – recent eg is that One nation’s ambassador to SL visited kacha theevu for ” survey ” . Handing over kacha theevu was not a right decision – period!
Very good information..
இதுவரை அறிந்திடாத தகவல் தகவலுக்கு நன்றி சவுக்கு .
Katchatheevu was given to Sri Lanka in the early 70s. At that time Srimavo (Sri Lanka’s prime minister) was very close with India and maybe Russia (Socialist govt). After 1978, when Jaywardana took over, the economy was liberalized and he tried to get close to the US and that may be the reason for supporting militancy in Sri Lanka but not the reason for giving Katchatheevu.
Excellent . V gud narrative skills u hav
பிரபாகரன் தமிழர் இன தலைவன்..!!!
@Sugan J you are right…
When people are spectators they just bullshit ?
@ScienceIsReligion People here are not talking about this , especially Chandrika s peace solution which the leader should have accepted.Had he accepted that people there would have fared a million times better than They’re now.
@ScienceIsReligion it was a great chat, have a nice day bro.
@Sugan J thats because we have to accept mistake on our side including India. Saying whatever we did was right wont give any solution.
I certainly believe political solution. ? ok bye.
@ScienceIsReligion yes they are referring to Varadharajan, but why they need to bring that information in here bro. They wanted to prove the point that they believed war reference “Varadharajan”. Mani is a senior reporter, he can analyze that statement and see if it’s make sense or not. But still Mani bring that Information here. Mani wants to prove a point saying look LTTE don’t have political knowledge and LTTE believed that all solutions can be find by gun only. In that way Mani can say, look it’s not my statement, it’s former LTTE said it.
