JVP leader Anura Kumara Dissanayake yesterday said in Parliament that India’s premier intelligence agency – the Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) was engaged in a scheme to destabilise the North.

Participating in the adjournment debate on Geneva based UNHRC report and alleged human rights violations during the last phase of the war, MP Dissanayake said: “Jaffna has become a den of the RAW.”

He said that international interventions in domestic affairs had always been detrimental to the national interests. The Jaffna people thought that India would help them. There was no such help when the conflict was worsening.

It was too late when the people realised that India was furthering its own geo-strategic interests on the pretext of helping them. Today, the area is infested with RAW agents and their activities are aimed at destabilising the North.”

He said that Tamil people should not pin their hopes on Western countries such as the US and organisations such as the UN. “One cannot rely on UN when it comes to bringing redress to Tamil people,” he said.
