The old names of the 26 largest islands in India’s Andaman archipelago have been changed and new names have been given by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi yesterday (23).
In case you have any doubt as to what is related to Sri Lanka in this message, the explanation should also be given.
History of LTTE
Similarly, one of the names given by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi yesterday is to remind the history of LTTE in Andaman.
After the initial failure of the Indo-Sri Lanka Treaty and the dominant trend of the Indian Army to destroy the LTTE, the conflict between the Indian Army and the LTTE erupted in October 1987.
A month after the conflict broke out, Major Ramasamy Parameswaran’s team, which went with a large force, faced a team of LTTE with less soldiers.
Fierce clashes took place between these two sides. Major Ramasamy Parameswaran was killed in this clash in Jaffna.
Param Veer Chakra
He was also awarded the Param Veer Chakra, India’s highest military award many years ago, and an island in the Andamans is now named Param Veer Chakra Parameswaran.
Today’s news report is a detailed view of this.
