Crimes heaped to destroy the Tamil Nation, Situation grave: NPC CM

The sword slashing and drug abuse are initial and deliberate activities to destroy the Tamil Community, degenerate their Education, Culture, and Development and finally to make them extinct, said the CM, NPC, C.V.Wigneswaran.

He was participating as the Chief Guest, in the Teacher’s conference, organized by the Jaffna Educational Zone, held at the Vembady Girls School yesterday.

This land which produced intellectuals, religious dignitaries, and great artists had gone infertile in Education, infertile in Religion, meanness crept into the arts, into duties and we have taken refuge in selfishness. Our students engage instantaneously in improper activities and crimes.

The idea that punishment only could correct students is not correct I think. We can re-direct the students towards education by winning their hearts by giving love to them.

It gives much pain of heart to see a society which so disciplined even during war period had to such level to be interested in improper activities like drug abuse.

150,000 plus security forces men are standing around us. But, thousands of kilos of ganja find its way into the North. Who is behind it? Doing this kind act is like degrading, their own mothers.

While the judges are taking stringent action to curb this menace, the teachers, intellectuals, political leaders, religious dignitaries, principals and parents should be vigilant about this, he said.

It is notable that a similar sentiment is expressed contemporarily by the Bishop of Jaffna, Rt. Rev. Dr. Justin Bernard Gnnapragsam, in a press release issued by the Bishop House yesterday.
