Navi Pillay taken through backdoor to avoid public in Jaffna
[TamilNet, Tuesday, 27 August 2013, 07:01 GMT]
Many among more than a thousand people gathered in front of the Jaffna Public Library on Tuesday morning to personally convey their feelings to the visiting UN Human Rights Commissioner Ms Navi Pillay, started shedding tears when they found out that Ms Pillay was taken away, through the backdoor, by the Sri Lankan officials. The gathering that was mostly the kith and kin of the people missing in the war and the aftermath, was told by the organisers of the visit to peacefully assemble in front of the Jaffna Public Library so that Ms Pillay would be seeing them. Some of the people had even travelled from the South to convey their bereavement. But, after meeting the SL Colonial Governor, SL Government Agents of the districts in the North and SL-run provincial council heads of departments at the Public Library hall, Ms Pillay was led through the backdoor.

Washing white school uniform discharges extra chemicals into the environment. Shouldn’t Sri Lankan environmentalists insist on changing school uniform to any colour of choice of the school? Schools in the Southern Hemisphere seem to have white uniform and schools in the Northern Hemisphere seem to have colour uniform or no uniform.
