Congress and CPI(M) make cheap politics in TN

When the Lok Sabha election date is nearing, Congress President M/s. Sonia Gandhi making statements like SriLankan government should stop the war to safeguard Tamils. She also insisted SriLanka to give the necessary rights for Tamils and sent a letter to Tamilnadu Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi regarding this. Earlier the CPI(M) general secretary Prakash Karat came to Chennai for releasing his party's election manifesto in tamil version. Then he said that the war against Tamils in SriLanka should be stopped.

The congress government and other parties didn't even mind to condemn about the merciless killings when the SriLankan government was in full swing to eradicate Tamils from its soil in the previous months. Now they are very much interested in this to gain vote from Tamils. Sonia Gandhi remember very well that, her alliance has got 40 seats from Tamilnadu and Pondicherry in the 2004 election. Keeping that in mind she wish for more Lok Sabha seats from the state.
