Colombo's COIN backfires, solidarity key to ensure Tamil-Muslim territoriality: Diasporic academic[TamilNet, Thursday, 25 April 2019, 16:30 GMT] The growth of Wahhabism in the island has only served Colombo, and its external backers' interests in weakening the possibilities of unified Tamil speaking peoples' resistance to the unitary state, argues Norway-based Eezham Tamil anthropology academic Athithan Jayapalan in an article following the serial Easter Sunday bomb attacks in the island. The Wahhabis were contributing to the severing of the ties held by Tamil Muslims to their territory, and in the case of north and east, to their Tamil neighbours by targeting, destroying or marginalising traditional Tamil Muslim Sufism in the island in the past. “Time has again come for Tamil – Muslim solidarity and alliances to bloom, to arrest divisive measures of the Colombo state and external powers,” to counter the dangers of the future, he writes narrating the trends of the past and his experiences during the field trips to the island.Full story >> Paṭṭiruppu, Heṭṭirippuva, Pattirippuva[TamilNet, Thursday, 28 December 2017, 18:30 GMT] The cattle-stall settlement or the cattle-flock stationThe merchant's residence or the merchant settlement The royal audience seat, or the elevated pavilion from where the king views festivities etc Full story >> Paṭṭi, Āṭṭup-paṭṭi, Paṭṭik-kuṭiyiruppu, Paṭṭiya, Ẹt-paṭṭiya, Paṭṭi-pola[TamilNet, Saturday, 23 December 2017, 18:30 GMT] The cattle-stallThe goat-stall The settlement of the cattle-stall The cattle-stall The stall or enclosure to keep elephants The cattle-stall place Full story >> Īccilam-paṟṟai/ Īccilam-pattai, Ińdi-bẹdda, Bẹddē-gama[TamilNet, Tuesday, 05 December 2017, 18:30 GMT] The thicket of dwarf wild date palmsThe thicket or jungle of dwarf wild date palms The jungle village or the village in the jungle Full story >> Muḷḷip-paḷḷam, Veḷḷap-paḷḷam, Aṭṭaip-paḷḷam, Paḷḷak-kamam, Paḷḷaṉ-kō&am[TamilNet, Friday, 01 December 2017, 18:30 GMT] The low land found with Muḷḷi plantsThe low land where floodwater pools in The backwaters or sea-arm found with sea cucumbers The low-lying paddy field or the wet-cultivation paddy field The settlement enclosure or enclave of Paḷḷar community The valley of elephants;
