The Karnataka government in India has come to know that Sri Lankan nationals have joined hands with a small group of Maoists operating in forests of Western Ghats, state Home Minister R Ashok said on Monday.

"..We have come to understand that some Sri Lankan nationals, along with a group from neighbouring Andhra Pradesh, have joined hands with 25-30 Maoists operating in Chikamagalur, Udupi, Shimoga and Dakshina Kannada," he said in the Legislative Council.

The suspected presence of Sri Lankan nationals in Western Ghats came to light after Anti-Naxal Force seized weapons and other material from Maoists in recent encounters, Ashok said replying to a question by Ashwath Narayana (Cong). (PTI)

Ha, Ha, Ha.,!!!!!!!!!!! The LTTE TERRORISTS involvement and training of Maoists were well suspected. HA! Ha., Ha.,!!!!! India 's stand against Sri Lanka in the UN RESOLUTION will produce more results for India to worry about in the coming months! India will become a very troubled country indeed! NO SYMPATHY will come their way from sri lanka or its people. MAY THE JUSTICE PREVAIL!

I wonder why the literati rate is 48% and the most poor people sleeps on the road side and so many Indians come here to do jobs, and half of the educated are in oversees.
