Need for the right perspective
Karunanidhi, who is known for being noncommittal on LTTE (he had once refused to accept LTTE as a terrorist outfit), criticized the Centre.
Although it might be easy to ignore this current issue as being simply a hyped up affair, one should give a passing mention that irrespective of the lady being Prabhakaran’s mother, there can be no ad hominem argument forwarded that therefore she too is a criminal. To the extent of believing in a human angle, one would say that the Indian government’s move to deport the lady was too fast too soon. But there is a logical angle to this story. If she had been allowed to land, the Indian authorities would have been immediately inundated by the Sri Lankan government’s communique to hand her over to them. India would have been immediately pushed into an unwanted corner, especially given the attempts to improve relations with the Rajapakse coterie. Evidently, Prabhakaran’s mother is not short of money. And the medical treatment she wishes here is available in other countries too. Thus, in all, well ignored.
