He further said demanding the Indian government to call Sri Lankan High Commissioner to condemn this attitude. People of Tamil Nadu will think themselves as the second class citizens if the government failed to do so, he added.
On Monday, Vaiko claimed that he was accosted by a Sri Lankan woman and former army personnel at UN Human Rights Council in Geneva where he raised concerns over the atrocities committed by the army and the government machinery against the Tamil civilians in the island nation in his speech.
