Commendable Quote
  Europe which has a total population of 800 million is made up of 45 language based nation states. South Asia which has a total population of one billion, (1000 million) is comprised of four states. Who is preventing and therefore benefiting by limiting new nation-states in South Asia?

Tamil daily distributor’s shop burnt

The Tamil daily Veerakesari distributor’s shop, Murugesu and Son Stores, was burnt to the ground in Batticaloa town on Saturday, 5 August in the early morning. The shop is located 75 metres from a Sri Lankan Army (SLA) camp near the Batticaloa Clock tower. Following GoSL operated forces’ death threats and the SLA’s blockage of newspaper distributors into Batticaloa, residents in the area stated this was carried out by GoSL operated forces.

Veerakesari is printed in Colombo and delivered to Batticaloa daily by a private bus. The owner of the bus transportation has been threatened by GoSL operated forces and warned not to deliver the newspapers to Muruges Son Stores, Sudaroli and Thinnakural.

A newspaper distributor of the Jaffna Tamil dailies was killed by a claymore attack in Achchuvely, Jaffna on 27 July.
