The Centre has extended the ban on Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) for further five years.
The central government has taken the decision in view of the activities of the LTTE that continues to pose a threat to the sovereignty and territorial integrity of India.
The MHA said that even after its military defeat in May 2009 in Sri Lanka following the killing of its chief Velupillai Prabhakaran, “the LTTE has not abandoned the concept of ‘Eelam’ (an independent country for Tamils) and has been clandestinely working towards the ‘Eelam’ cause by undertaking fund raising and propaganda activities”.
