SriLanaUnites – please keep the truth naked to find peace and prosperity for ALL

This is with reference to what happened in the following program:


 Date with Danu (The Naked Truth) | Prashan De Visser and Vidhya Kandeeban, 11 August 2020,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=879&v=ZX-m0aIqTIc&feature=emb_logo, 

When Annilavan, Manager,, Mullaitivu Centre of SriLankaUnites, said that the Tamils should have tried
non-violence to get their rights, none of Danu, Prashan or Vidya intervened to say that whenever the Tamils
tried to use non-violence they were met with severe violence from the government itself:

1. Tamil parliamentarians and Tamils sat in satyagraha, non-violent sit-in protest outside the parliament on 5
June 1956 to protest against Sinhala Only Policy, the police stood by without restraining the thugs from
violently attacking the peaceful protesters. The violence not only spread to parts of Colombo city over a few
days it spread to the new colonisation scheme in GalOya where more than 100 Tamil settlers were
murdered( https://thuppahi.wordpress.com/2017/02/02/the-anti-tamil-gal-oya-riots-of-1956/  )

2. Tamil parliamentarians and Tamils sat in satyagraha day and night in front of Jaffna District Secretariat
for nearly two months(mid-February - mid-April 1961)  and one early morning in mid-April the Army was
sent to crush the protest and all the parliamentarians were taken to detention at Army cantonment in
Panagoda for six months along with some of their supporters. Some of the satyagrahis who were attacked by
the Army had to be admitted to the hospital. The North began to be encircled with military camps to bring
the Tamils to heel because N.Q.Dias,  the Prime Minister's Secretary, thought that there would be armed
uprising in 25yrs' time(  https://groundviews.org/2014/09/17/review-of-neville-jayaweeras-jaffna-

3. It is sheer horror that SriLankaUnites has never criticised the Post-war militarisation for 21C PsyOps on
the Population of the war-ravaged North in the last 11yrs

North-East 
After the topic of post-war Militarisation of war-torn Northern Sri Lanka was raised at Leiden University
and Humanity Hub on 18 and 19 December 2019, the News Archives 2010-2019 were deleted off Security
Forces Headquarters Jaffna website on 31 December 2019, but the intensity of PsyOps on the people has
been intensifying since then: http://www.cimicjaffna.com/
