(June 19, Chennai, Sri Lanka Guardian) Attention has been drawn to news reports appeared in the media recently alleging that the Government of Sri Lanka was intending to construct a watch tower and a military base on the Katchatheevu Island while also claiming that the Sri Lanka Navy was harassing Tamil Nadu fishermen.
The Government of Sri Lanka categorically states that there are no such intensions of constructing a watch tower or have a military presence on the Katchatheevu Island. In addition, the Sri Lanka Navy, after conducting investigations, has also categorically denied allegations that Tamil Nadu fishermen were being harassed by its personnel.
It is likely that these malicious allegations have been orchestrated by parties with vested interests in order to strain the long standing and warm relations between Sri Lanka and India.
