Randu..,
It's Velu who denied the democratic rights to the Tamils.
No, not buddhist monks.
Remeber the last presidential election..
Yes, Velu is one side of extremism with MR on the other side.
Mind you VP's Eelam is the reaction to MR's (or previous leaders) Unitarism.
Most Sinhala Buddhist monks are fundamentalists who do not want equal rights to minorities which is ant-Buddhist. Dalai Lama's Buddhism is peace loving and conciliatory.
Minorities want the right to self-determination which is the bed rock of democracy, and is granted automatically in many civilised countries.
