The Tamil National Alliance (TNA) yesterday welcomed the delisting of the diaspora organizations and individuals.
Issuing  a statement, TNA spokesman MP M. A. Sumanthiran said, “We welcome  the delisting of some diaspora organizations and individuals from the  terrorism list. However, it must be noted that even others who remain on  the list have been so named without  any evidence connecting them to  terrorism and by not following the prescribed procedure. We urge the government to at least continue this process of re-evaluating and de-proscribing all individuals and organizations who ought not to have been listed.”
