POV?

Content of the article seems factually correct but the highly loaded(charged) wording shoud be corrected. Explanation is in Maxist point of view.

Only devotees of the JVP could possibly be interested in the better than two-thirds of this article that goes on about splits in the 'movement'.

Tamil Representation

Why is there no mention of the old leaders? Podi Athula, Loku Athula, Uyangoda, etc???

1983 Ethnic riots

What is "Vasudeva Baahu Vikrambaahu Kanakaratna’s" Party ? The NSSP? Who is Kanakaratna?
