DMK-backed TESO resolutions handed over to United Nations

CHENNAI: DMK treasurer M K Stalin has submitted to the United Nations the party-backed TESO resolutions seeking redressal to problems faced by Sri Lankan Tamils in that country.

Party leaders Stalin and T R Baalu submitted the resolutions to United Nations Deputy General Secretary Jan Eliasson yesterday and interacted with him for about 30 minutes, a DMK press release here said.

They urged that UN play a role in areas including resettlement of Tamils displaced due to the internal conflict and ensure a honourable life for them.

Karunanidhi had earlier announced that Stalin and Baalu would hand over the Tamil Eelam Supporters' Organisation (TESO) resolutions passed during its conference here in August to the UN.
