Description
-
The article discusses the plight of Tamil repatriates returning to India from Sri Lanka, where they have been classified as "stateless" despite having lived there for generations. This situation arose due to political decisions and economic challenges in Sri Lanka, leading to an Indo-Ceylon agreement for citizenship that has not fully resolved their status. Many repatriates arrive in India impoverished, facing bureaucratic hurdles and inadequate support for resettlement, leading to disillusionment and hardship. The article emphasizes the need for effective governmental follow-up and community support to improve their living conditions and integrate them into society.
