Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has defended India's vote against Sri Lanka at the UNHRC saying it was in line with its stand and wanted to ensure that minority Tamils in that country get justice even as India did not want to "infringe" on the sovereignty of Sri Lanka.
"One has to weigh pros and cons. What we did was in line with our stand on Sri Lanka. We do not want to infringe on the sovereignty of Sri Lanka but concerns should be expressed so that Tamil people can get justice and lead a life of dignity," he said.
