It is important to examine the reasons for the near absence of Sylhet in Partition studies prior to an engagement with the event itself, or its consequences, of which, one, for instance, is the making of an Indian Sylheti identity in contemporary India.
We, the signatories of this statement, strongly condemn both the
Government of Sri Lanka (GOSL) and the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam
(LTTE) for their callous disregard for the safety and welfare of civilians
trapped in the crossfire in Mullaitivu. We demand the GOSL and the LTTE
immediately prioritise the safety of these quarter million civilians to
prevent the humanitarian catastrophe that has begun to unfold in northern
Sri Lanka.
