Congress will not forgive LTTE: Gnanasekaran

Reiterating that Congress party would never forgive the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) for "assassinating" former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi, a senior legislator today urged the Tamil Nadu government to take steps to bring LTTE leader V Prabakaran to India to face trial in the assassination case.

Participating in the debate on the motion of thanks to the Governor for his address in the assembly, Mr C Gnanasekaran said in the last two years, after the DMK came to power, as many as 102 LTTE militants had infiltrated into the state and this posed grave threat to peace and tranquility in the state.

He said the Congress party had no second opinion that a political solution should be found to end the ethnic crisis in Sri lanka, but would never support any assistance to the LTTE in a bid to end the crisis in the island.
