Did you know that decades after the brutal civil war ended in 2009, the Tamil minority in Sri Lanka still faces significant challenges such as land dispossession, political marginalization, and enforced disappearances? Despite Sri Lanka’s official claims of being a multi-ethnic democratic nation, many Tamils continue to live under a heavy military presence and face systemic discrimination. If Sri Lanka has officially recognized Tamil as an official language and promised reconciliation, then why do Tamil families still struggle to reclaim their ancestral lands? Why are Tamil politicians and activists repeatedly targeted and silenced? And how is it possible that decades after the war, justice for war crimes remains elusive?

If these questions have ever crossed your mind, then you are invited to read Zeenath Imrana’s detailed write-up which offers clear answers and deep insights into the ongoing struggles of the Tamil minority in Sri Lanka.
