Tamil National Parties Joint statement to UNHRC

The Commissioner for Human Rights’ oral report on Resolution 46/1 is due to be tabled at the next session of the Human Rights Council in September. The Government of Sri Lanka has rejected Resolution 46/1. The Human Rights Council had in the last session given the office of the Commissioner for Human Rights the power to gather primarily evidence.

The Human Rights Commission has stated that it is preparing to mobilize resources for this purpose with the allocation of funds and the appointment of officers. It is expected that measures for the justice mechanism will make significant progress in the forthcoming session of the Human Rights Council, which is considered important on its basis.

It was now decided by the consensus of the Tamil National Parties to report on the government’s unleashed anti-Tamil activities in the Tamil homeland after Resolution 46/1.

Accordingly, the Secretary General of the Tamil People’s Alliance(TPA), Justice CV Vigneswaran MP, Leader of the Tamil Eelam Liberation Organization (TELO), Selvam Adikalanath MP, Leader of the Democratic People’s Liberation Front(PLOTE) Siddharthan MP, Leader of the Eelam People’s Revolutionary Liberation Front (EPRLF) Suresh Premachandran, Leader of the Tamil National Party (TNP) Srikantha and Secretary General of the Tamil Eelam Liberation Organization (TELO) Govindan Karunakaram MP and TELO Member of Parliament Vino Nokarathalingam.
