Book Description

Prabhakaran- a cult among the Sri Lankan Tamils-was he the cause of the conflict or the product?

“I started visiting Sri Lanka after the signing of the indo-Sri Lanka Peace Accord of July 187 between Rajiv Gandhi and J.R. Jayewardene. But I got acquainted with the problem much earlier, after the 1983 pogrom brought to Tamil Nadu a wave of refugees and leaders. Several meetings in Chennai with Tamil groups-militant and moderate alike-from 1984 to 1987 gave me a historical perspective to the Tamil question. Through frequent visits to Sri Lanka over the next 22 years and extensive travels within that country, I acquired first-hand knowledge of the complex problem. If this books helps... get a proper perspective [on Sri Lankan history], it will have served its purpose.” – From the Preface
