A remembrance week for Tamils killed in the last phase of conflict will be held from May 12-18, TNA Northern Provincial Councillor M.K. Sivajilingam said today. He added that commemoration events will be held in Tamil Nadu in line with those in Sri Lanka.

Several TNA officials were present at the first ceremony which was held at Vellamullivaikkal in the Mullaitivu District.

If people in the South are allowed to remember those who were killed in the riots and uprisings we also should be allowed to do so, Sivagiligam added.
