SL‘s demand that Delhi bank roll it will continue especially once EU withdraws the GSP plus benefits. Pitifully Delhi is sure to accede though it is fully aware that its funding will go towards SL’s ambitious militarization of the North (more military checkpoints dotting every few hundred meters) with improved land, air and naval bases in close proximity to TN that have serious security implications for TN and Tamilians. Delhi would have no qualms in abandoning them as it abandoned the TN fishermen to the mercies of the SL navy. Delhi’s indifference to TN’s future security leaves an embittered and betrayed Tamilians to wake up and re-examine fundamentals in its policy approaches to counter Delhi’s game plan. Is Delhi inducing the early birth of a balkanized India.
