Katchatheevu Row: Colombo Hits Back At TVK Chief, Calls Demand 'Election Rhetoric'

Описание: The longstanding dispute over Katchatheevu island has intensified following remarks by TVK chief Vijay. He called for the island's return from Sri Lanka to protect Tamil Nadu fishermen who face frequent arrests and seizures of their boats. In a speech during a 21st August program, Vijay questioned why no retribution has been secured for the fishermen. In response, Sri Lanka has dismissed these statements as political rhetoric for the election season. The Sri Lankan Foreign Minister stated Colombo's firm position on the matter. The Minister is quoted as saying, “Kachatheevu belongs to Sri Lanka and it will belong to Sri Lanka in the future.” This issue remains a significant and emotional point of contention for the coastal districts of Tamil Nadu. #katchatheevu #srilanka #tamilnadu #itwebvideos #fishermenissue #tvk #indiasrilanka #colombo #southasia #foreignpolicy #maritime #tamilnadupolitics #geopolitics #rameshwaram
