As protests in support of the Sri Lankan Tamils continued, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Jayalalithaa has said IPL matches would be permitted in the state only if there were no Sri Lankan players, umpires, officials or support staff in these matches. The AIADMK supremo has also asked the Central government to move amendments to the US-backed resolution on Sri Lanka over war crimes against ethnic Tamils.
Jayalalithaa has said that Board of Cricket Control of India (BCCI) may be advised by the central government to prevail upon the IPL to not allow any Sri Lankans to take part in the tournament in Tamil Nadu. Earlier in February, Jayalalithaa had cancelled the Asian Athletics meet saying Sri Lankan players would not be allowed in Tamil Nadu.
According to her, state government apprehended that the participation of Sri Lankans in the IPL tournament, with many games to be played in Chennai, would aggravate an already surcharged atmosphere and further offend the sentiments of the people.
