Modi to pay tribute to fallen IPKF soldiers in Sri Lanka

COLOMBO: Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who will tour Sri Lanka next week, will lay a wreath at a memorial honouring the IPKF soldiers who died in the country fighting the civil war.

Sri Lankan foreign ministry today said Modi will lay a wreath at the Indian Peace Keeping Force (IPKF) Memorial and visit the Mahabodhi Society near Colombo.

The IPKF was invited to Sri Lanka's north and east to enforce the India-Sri Lanka accord of 1987. Some 1,140 of them died fighting the civil war with the LTTE.

Modi is also expected to travel to Anuradhapura, Talaimannar and the Tamil-dominated Jaffna during his two-day visit to the nation.

Modi will be the first Indian Prime Minister and the second head of state after Britain's Premier David Cameron to visit Jaffna. Cameron visited Jaffna in November 2013.

In Jaffna, Modi will unveil a plaque at the site of the proposed India-funded Jaffna Cultural Centre and also hand over to beneficiaries houses built with Indian assistance.
In Anuradhapura, he will visit the sacred Sri Maha Bodhi, one of the most sacred relics of the Buddhists in Sri Lanka.

And in Talaimannar, the Indian Prime Minister will flag off the first train signifying recommencement of the Talaimannar-Medawachchiya section of train service to Colombo, following the rehabilitation work carried out with Indian credit assistance.

During his Sri Lanka visit, the first by an Indian Prime Minister in more than 25 years, Modi will be accorded a ceremonial welcome including a Guard of Honour and Gun Salute.

Modi will hold bilateral discussion with Sri Lanka's new President Maithripala Sirisena, while Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe will host a lunch in honour of the Indian Prime Minister.

Modi will address a special sitting of the Sri Lankan Parliament.

President Sirisena will host a state banquet in honour of the visiting Indian Prime Minister.

Modi's visit comes within a month of Sirisena's India trip last month that saw the two countries sign a civil nuclear pact.

Analysts say the high-level visits is a manifestation of the keen desire of the two nations to build upon and nurture an age-old friendship to a level of extraordinary level of excellence.

The previous bilateral visit to Sri Lanka by an Indian Prime Minister was in 1987, when Rajiv Gandhi travelled to Colombo to sign the Indo-Sri Lanka Peace Accord with the then Sri Lankan President J R Jayewardene.

Memorial for IPKF - Innocent People Killing Force

I was shocked, saddened and angered when I read the news item on 17 March 2004 in Sri Lanka Media, that a memorial is to be erected in Colombo for the Indian Peace Keeping Force - IPKF soldiers who died in Sri Lanka between 1987 and 2000. The simple fact of the matter is that a foreign country, with designs of becoming a regional superpower, maneuvered to send its Army here as Peace Keepers but massacred thousands of innocent Tamil civilians, raped the women and plundered valuables. If memorials are to be erected, then it should be for innocent civilians massacred by the IPKF.

No service men and women should be denigrated for mistakes by their politicians.. Those who do are spitting on their own armed forces

Doesn't change the fact that Modi is going to commemorate Indian war criminals who killed Sri Lankans. What an a$$hole.

At least the Indian war criminals made good fertiliser for Sri Lankan soil.

Our crops can grow well.

Rape

Inside our village temple, Ariyalai Sri Sithi Vinayagar Kovil, where people had gathered as refugees, young village girls were molested by the Indian soldiers inside the temple. Dr. W. Paramanathan, great grandson of Proctor V. Casipillai who had rebuilt the temple in 1900, after its destruction during the Portugese occupation, was an eye witness. “My blood boiled; but I was helpless” he told me. In fact, being a young man, he was taken out twice to be shot as a Tiger and only the strong pleadings of his aunt Miss K. Charavanamuttu, retired Principal of Vadamarachchy Hindu Ladies College saved his life. Dr. Paramanathan has migrated to the United States and is living there.

Plunder

The 21 day curfew proved to be a golden opportunity - in a real golden sense – to the Indian soldiers. They broke into every house, broke open every almyrah and stole the valuables inside. As everyone knows, all Jaffna Tamil Hindu women wear a lot of gold jewellery. When they had to flee at half an hour’s notice, they could not remove all their valuables. When the families returned, they found their gold jewellery, imported watches and Parker pens missing. In 1987, India was still a closed economy and these imported items were not available in India. Not merely the soldiers, even the officers helped themselves. This is what the Island of 22 Feb 1988 reported.

Umm.... we burn our dead. We don't bury them, silly.
