Dear Indra,
The Tamil Community (TNA) wil be voting as a block to JVP’s Anura Kumara. The 2nd prference will go to the Ex-Army Commander Mahesh Senanayake.
This means the Presidential Elections will be decided purely by majority Sinhala Buddhist Modaya Votes.
Following the elections, the Tamil Speaking Community will have an extremely strong case with the international community including US, EU and UN for a plebiscite in the North and East for a Separate State.
Thank you Thuleepan.
