A panel constituted to find durable solutions to short-term and long-term issues of the Sri Lankan Tamils living in and out of camps across the State submitted its interim report.
The interim report has explored ways of granting Indian citizenship to Sri Lankan nationals living in the State and made certain recommendations in this regard.
The Sirimavo Bandaranaike-Lal Bahadur Shastri Pact and the Sirimavo Bandaranaike-Indira Gandhi Pact — favour Indian citizenship for them.
