Open Letter to TN CM


Madam CM

There has been a lot said and done about the on-going fracas over the Lankan crisis.  But here are some facts that everyone is aware of but is conveniently ignoring

We have an acute power shortage that’s crippling our businesses and other means of earning livelihood
We don't get the necessary water for our crops and Cauvery water has been a pipe dream
 Sill the land grabbing issues have not been resolved.
Our Fishermen get shot and yet no one bats an eyelid
Kudankulam is yet to see the light of the after years and crores of tax-payer money

Successive governments in TN have failed to get Cauvery water, or for that matter even power from National Grid to change the fate of TN people. Given this, how do you think that some resolution in TN assembly is actually going to bring relief to Tamil Lankans?

Western countries were still crying genocide in 2009, but we were silent and did precious nothing when we could have influenced things… Why is now everyone crying when the damage has already been done.
This aggressive posturing and alienating an elected government of a sovereign country does no good. This will hamper the process of national reconciliation there.

2009 Parliamentary election results were never about Lankan crisis. 2011 Assembly election results wassan answer to large scale plundering by a family.. Never about Lanka. Please don't get biased on what media portrays.

Even if the SL president is declared a war criminal by UN (which is unlikely), he will anyway be president until he is elected out. Consider the case of Omar Al Bashir who still rules Sudan and is indicted by ICC for Genocide in Darfur or for that matter Uhuru Kenyatta elected president of Kenya after an ICC indictment for genocide in post poll violence in Kenya

Nothing can really be done until those people are out of power.  If we want to really help lets us send aid on the ground get closer to the Tamil people of SL and make their life better…

As far as getting limelight and going down in history as the best CM, madam, you are already on your way to that with the SC direction and government notification of the final award, you have already done a great deal than your predecessors to find a place in history.

We would appreciate if you can win more seats, have enough influence n the next government to get our due share of water.

Let us forget the political posturing and work for the real betterment of tamil Indians & tamil lankans in a better way...a

Masterstroke

DMK president has been known as one of the astute politicians this country has seen... But he seems to be done in by a master stroke by his successor in-waiting...historically, the crown prince of a long reigining monarch is known to be weak... But the current leader in waiting of the southern party has pulled off a great tactic that even Machiavelli wil be surprised of... His political acumen , popularity cannot be underestimated... His growth in the party has been calculated, supplemented with hard  work...His popularity with the people was evident in the 2002 chennai mayoral elections, when an infinite amount of rigging bythe then ruling party couldn't stop him fro getting elected... Evein the last polls, he defeated a very popular leader of ADMK shows his acceptability level in the massess...just months after being confirmed for the top post, he has chosen his uniqueway to rebuild his empire given the popularity of the currentregime in TN. The decision to pull out of UPA spear headed by him will ensureolitical wilderness for his two rivals (also his siblings).....they may also be incarcerated by the state n central agencies respectively as they have pending cases against them....this will ensure a free run for him in his party for a couple of years..... Though the gains will be diminishing in the upcoming general elections, the returns could be mutilfold in the next assembly polls if he maintains his reputation.... Right or wrong , ethical or not, this is indeed a political masterstroke...... Chanakya neeti live!!!!!!
