chogm in Sri Lanka and indian representation.

My view on this .Since the Northern province of that country has elected its own Tamil CM it is his right and duty to take care of Tamil needs there in.It would be simply churlish to insult a democratically elected President of a friendly neighbouring country with whom our ties are from time immemorial by boycotting the meeting.
Yes a  war has taken place . Horrors in war is nothing new in this subcontinent or even world wide.It is un palatable but one has to move on.
.
I hardly move with anyone so i don't know  nor have i  felt the supposedly palpable  emotions on this issue in here at Chennai or TN .Nor am  i well versed in foreign affairs to grasp the China threat.

My simple reasoning is that since the affairs in that country have taken a better turn, that is no longer killings or mass exodus, it is wiser not to poke the' humanitarian nose' whether real or political  that is getting longer and longer these days into internal affairs of sovereign countries .


The news that our PM is not attending the chogm  came as a disappointment to me.This may make india not only to lose its  leverage with Sri lanka to do more for theSri lankan Tamils therein  but  also lose  the  good will and gratitude of the Sri lankan people as a whole to India. Hence i am constrained to observe   that as       Bharat has weathered a lot and survived mainly due to the inner yearnings and longings of its people as a nation at a given point of time in its very long history and would do so in future also.
