There is a clear distinction between the
LTTE and the Tamils and New Delhi is not
going to help LTTE, said an official
accompanying Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan
Singh to Japan on Tuesday October 21.
At the same time, the official reiterated
that India will do everything to protect the
rights and humanitarian conditions of Tamils
in Sri Lanka. He stressed that ordinary
civilians must be protected in the ongoing
war and New Delhi will also urge the Lankan
Government for restraint in this regard
India is already working with Red Cross, UN
bodies and with the Sri Lankan authorities
for the supply of food and essential items
in the conflict zone.
