Sri Lanka Will Face A Difficult Resolution In The UNHRC
Sri Lanka will face a difficult resolution in the UNHRC. India stuck in dilemma, support Tamils or subscribe to neighboring religion with Sri Lanka, know what is the matter.
Sri Lanka will face a difficult resolution in the United Nations Human Rights Council based in Geneva on Monday in connection with human rights violations.
The proposal would cite the government’s failure to get justice and rehabilitate victims of action against the LTTE in the Jaffna peninsula. Once again India is in a state of unease over Sri Lanka.
To help and support Sri Lanka in the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) or to stand up and protect the Tamil minorities. In recent times, Sri Lanka has openly sought support from India.
For this, Sri Lanka angered China and Pakistan and gave the contract to India for the development of Colombo Port’s Western Container Terminal.
In such a situation, the biggest dilemma before India’s diplomacy will be whether to side with the Tamils or stand in favor of the Sri Lankan government.
It is truly a test of Indian foreign policy. After all, what is India’s big dilemma in helping Sri Lanka? Why the Sri Lanka issue is hot in UNHRC. Why is China silent in this matter
India’s eye rests on India’s stance.
Pro. Harsh Pant says that now it will be interesting to see what stand of India on this Sri Lankan proposal.
Especially when the Council’s proposal has been brought after the report by UN Human Rights High Commissioner Michele Bachelet, which raised serious concerns over the serious violation of human rights in Sri Lanka.
Also in the case of Sri Lanka in the Council, the Indian Foreign Minister had said that Colombo should take necessary steps to fulfill the legitimate aspirations of the Tamils.
He had said that Sri Lanka should fully implement the 13th amendment to the Constitution to protect the Tamils.
In such a situation, a major challenge will be facing India to protect the interests of the Tamils and join the neighboring country.
After all, why is Sri Lanka worried.
Let us say that at this time Sri Lanka is worried and frightened by the proposal to be brought against her in the session of the United Nations Human Rights Council.
Sri Lanka has been criticized for war crimes in this proposal. Not only this, there has been a threat of dragging in the international court.
In addition, it has been said to impose stricter sanctions against officers allegedly responsible for human rights violations. Sri Lanka is hopeful that India will support it.
Let us tell you that in a report a few days ago, the United Nations had called for drastic measures against those responsible for the alleged violation of human rights during the last phase of the armed conflict with the LTTE.
Sri Lanka will face a difficult resolution: Sri Lanka keeps this argument to convince India.
Recently the Sri Lankan Foreign Secretary had said that India cannot leave it with the proposal to be put to vote in the United Nations Human Rights Council.
He had quoted Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam of Indian Foreign Minister S Jaishankar as saying that if the world is a family then we are the closest family to you.
You should support us Jayanath Columbus said that Sri Lanka would be very uncomfortable if India did not support the neighboring country in Geneva.
He expressed hope that India, Pakistan, Nepal, and Bhutan among the current council members will support us. He said that there are many similarities between us. We are fighting the coronavirus.
He said that he is facing allegations of human rights violations. Columbus said that our President Gotabhaya Rajapaksa wrote the first letter to the Indian Prime Minister and he first met the Indian High Commissioner.
He said that we are very conscious of the solidarity of South Asian countries. Foreign Secretary said that we are not asking you for anything unusual.
We are demanding the basis of your Neighborhood First Policy on the basis of security and development for all in the region.
What is Tamil and its Indian factor.
Sri Lanka is the second country after India with the largest population of Tamils. Despite this, thousands of Tamil people are forced to live in relief camps.
Sri Lanka has 12.6 percent of the total population of people of Tamil origin, but what is of concern is that their share in the country’s politics, military, and administration is negligible.
Not only this, the Sri Lankan government has mercilessly suppressed the Tamils’ right to self-determination. He is living his life in poverty and misery.
Unfazed by the concern of Tamils, the Sri Lankan government is still making plans to eradicate them.
Whenever there is mention of migrants in the world, pictures of Palestinian refugees, Chechen refugees. Tibetan refugees, and Kashmiri migrants start appearing in our minds.
The problems of these people have become international issues in the present time, but even after two decades of civil war.
The Sri Lankan Tamils are forced and forced to stumble in their own country. In such a situation, Sri Lanka is hopeful that India will defend him in the United Nations.
