Parliament Watch – Sri Lanka* January 2011
PARLIAMENT WATCH – SRI LANKA* JANUARY 2011 _____________________________________________________________ * Conceptualised, implemented and funded by South Asians for Human Rights; Research carried out and assistance provided by Transparency International, Sri Lanka At the end of a protracted war, normalcy does not miraculously happen. Any post war society requires time to evolve and this period of transition is also the time to lay firm foundations for integration and development. Among the difficulties a post war nation is expected to deal with and deal with well is the question of sporadic clashes among former militant groups. Sri Lanka too is not devoid of the occasional residual violence-related experience, despite the war having come to an end in May 2009. The fact of the matter is that Sri Lanka requires more time to heal. The militant groups that were at the receiving end when the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Elam (LTTE) exerted their unrelenting control over parts of the northeast are now having the occasional opportunity to extract their pound of flesh. Keen observers of the north do believe that residual violence may continue for some time more until the dust settles firmly. It also becomes the responsibility of the elected political administration to ensure to make all efforts to curb any such acts of violence and consistently work towards restoring normalcy. These efforts to restore normalcy become extremely important not simply because of the human rights concerns that are now casting shadows over the administration but also because only normalcy could pave the way for social stability in a much disturbed region that deserves accelerated economic development. -
