Leaders of the Ilankai Tamil Arasu Katchi (ITAK), Tamil Eelam Liberation Organisation(TELO), People’s Liberation Organisation of Tamil Eelam (PLOTE) — which are constituents of the Tamil National Alliance (TNA) — along with the Tamil Makkal Koottani (TMK) and the Eelam People’s Revolutionary Liberation Front (EPRLF) signed the document.දැන් කියපන් thehindu ත් ගෝඨට කඩේ යනවා කියලා... අනේ යකෝ.<a href="https://www.thehindu.com/news/international/tamil-groups-place-their-demands-ahead-of-presidential-elections-in-sri-lanka/article29807814.ece" target="_blank">https://www.thehindu.com/news/international/tamil-groups-place-their-demands-ahead-of-presidential-elections-in-sri-lanka/article29807814.ece</a></blockquote>
