Lankan Govt. and Army giving false reports on war: Ramadoss

Chennai, May 4 (ANI): Pattali Makkal Katchi (PMK) leader S Ramadoss on Monday claimed that the Sri Lankan Army and government are giving false reports on the ongoing war in the island country.

Talking to reporters, Ramadoss expressed his belief that the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) can never taste defeat in its cause for the Tamilians.

"Nobody will finish LTTE. They won't get any defeat. They are going to win finally," he said.

"Sri Lankan Army is giving false report. No media, international media, UN agencies is allowed there, no body is there," said Ramadoss.

Meanwhile, speaking on the same lines, M. Venkaiah Naidu, senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader, also accused Sri Lanka of lying and said that there is no cease-fire in Sri Lanka.

The analysts have lately claimed that the support enjoyed by the LTTE among Sri Lankan Tamils will make it hard for the Lankan Army to neutralise them in Sri Lanka.

According to the Independent, the analysts say that even if the rebels in the country's northeast are neutralised in the coming days, the movement will retain alive.

The LTTE was formed in 1976 by Velupillai Prabhakaran and since then has waged a violent campaign that seeks to create an independent Tamil state in the northeast Sri Lanka. (ANI)
