Most Indians don't support Tamils in SriLanka becoz the Tamils in India are hostile to the rest of India. Look at S India - Telugu, Kannada, Tamil and Malayalam are the four Dravidian languages which belong to a different family from the Indo-Aryan languages. However, Telugus, Kannadigas and Malayalis harbor no ill-feeling towards N India or Hindi. It is only Tamils who are hostile to N India. How then can Karuna expect non-Tamil Indians to be sympathetic to his cause?

Pulsar this is the same in Sri Lanka. For example, the Moors in Sri Lanka speak Tamil as their mother tongue but no one harbours ill will towards them because they harbour no ill feelings towards the Sinhalese or the Sinhala language.

Telugus, Kannadigas or Mallus may not have any special love for N India. But the more important point is - THEY DON'T HATE NORTH INDIA. For that matter everybody makes fun of Bengalis or Sardarjees etc. The important thins is "open hostility". This is displayed only by many Tamils.

Its a shame being in the same country there is so much hatred for each other. The change has to start first from you. As long as you harbor hatred, you shouldnt expect the same from other side.

Let us try to think about who is hating whom. Just look at the situation in South India. Who is hostile towards N India? Is it Telugus? No. Kannadigas? No. Mallus? No. Who is remaining? So who has to change now? Who is the odd man out?

Karuna will go by the "Actual Tamil way" of black mailing UPA at the center. All the benifits this karuna had obtained is only through black mail. He behaves as the best PROBLEM CHILD OF INDIAN DEMOCRACY!!

I am NOT a Northie. I am from AP.
Dude, Hindi is an Indo-Aryan language, not Indo-Dravidian language. Yeah, hindi speaking people are hated by some guys like ULFA in N.E. India, but who is supporting ULFA here anyway?

Hey pulsar. As you are from AP, I would encourage you to learn about the ties between Sri Lanka and Andhra Pradesh (ancient Kalinga). Many Sinhalese have Telugu-origin names. I read online that that there is a government minister with the last name Rajasekhara in Andhra Pradesh... this identical name exists among many Sinhalese - but it is spelt Rajasekara.

Well, it is interesting to hear about Telugu origin of many Srilankans. But nevertheless, this fact is at best a mere curiosity to me. My first loyalty is towards India and not merely AP.

Yes of course. It is good that your first loyalty is towards Sri Lanka. Wish you the best in your nation's fight against LTTE.

Yes. The last king of Sri Lanka also had Andhra origins. And like you with India my first loyalty is towards Sri Lanka and only Sri Lanka.
