Sri Lanka war crimes: DMK asks UPA to act
M Karunanidhi says its for the DMK executive to decide on whether to withdraw support to the government.

New Delhi: The DMK is demanding a stronger action from India on the alleged war crimes in Sri Lanka. On Wednesday, External Affairs Minister SM Krishna had been non-committal on India's position on a draft resolution at the United Nations which seeks to censure Sri Lanka over alleged war crimes.

The DMK's arch-rival AIADMK's MPs also staged a walk-out on Wednesday after tearing copies of Krishna's statement.

DMK Chief M Karunanidhi has now signalled that the DMK executives will be deciding on whether to continue as a UPA ally or not.

Asked if his party would withdraw support to the UPA Government if New Delhi supported Sri Lanka in the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC), he said that he alone cannot decide on that.

"I cannot decide on that. We will discuss and decide that in the (party) executive," the DMK patriarch said.
