India should demand an independent, high-level, credible inquiry into the alleged atrocities and human rights violations that took place in the last phase of the war in Sri Lanka, CPI(M) general secretary Prakash Karat said on Saturday.
Asked what should be India’s stand on the resolution that was likely to come upon in the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) against Sri Lanka, he said though it was not clear about the nature of the resolution, India should ask for a high-level, independent, credible inquiry.
The Communist Party of India (M)’s state unit had already announced that India should support the resolution against Sri Lanka and make efforts to bring to book those responsible for the killings of innocents and other human rights violations, The Hindu reported.
