OPEN LETTER TO INDIA’s PRIME MINISTER MANMOHAN SINGH sent by FAX
Honourable Dr. Manmohan Singh
Prime Minister of India
South Block, Raisina Hall, New Delhi, India, 110011
Dear Prime Minister:
You almost made me scream at you saying, “Come…on…Manmohan…stop being a Goddam joker” when I read the news item in Sri Lanka’s The Island of September 22, 2012, which said that you had asked the visiting President Mahinda Rajapaksa of Sri Lanka “… raised the issue of devolution of power in order to allow the Tamil population to look forward to a future where they can live in dignity and respect.” That is a bit high and mighty on your part isn’t it Manmohan?
