The Sri Lankan government has urged China to suspend the arrival of the spy ship, following several tactful steps taken by the central government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
It has come to light that the central government has formulated a nine-point action plan and implemented it. It was planned to stop our neighbor China’s spy ship ‘Yuan Wang-5’ from 11th to 17th at Ambanthota port in Sri Lanka.
Surprise
It is said that China is planning to spy on the ports and nuclear power centers in the southern states of Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh and Kerala through this spy ship. In this regard, the first detailed news was published in our newspaper. It subsequently had an international impact. The central government insisted to Sri Lanka not to allow the Chinese spy ship.
The ship is currently in the East China Sea near Taiwan. The ship is said to be coming to Sri Lanka for satellite inspection and refueling. However, the central government suspects that the ship is coming with the intention of fishing in the Indian Ocean. Following the series of actions by the central government, the Sri Lankan government has sent a letter to China to suspend the voyage of this ship; It has caused international surprise.
Advice
This announcement by the Sri Lankan government is considered as a temporary victory for the central government’s actions. At the same time, the central government has also taken efforts to prevent such a situation from happening in the future. Sri Lanka’s Ambanthota port was built with Chinese funding.
The Sri Lankan government has given a 99-year lease to China as it is unable to repay the loan. China has provided 10 percent of Sri Lanka’s foreign loans. In this situation, the main reason why Sri Lanka has spoken against China is said to be the royal tactics of the Prime Minister Narendra Modi government. Immediately after this issue arose, the Prime Minister held a consultation with Foreign Minister Jaishankar and National Security Adviser Ajit Doval. .
Subsequently, this was also discussed in the central cabinet meeting for security. The crisis was given to the Sri Lankan government both diplomatically and politically. Sri Lankan President Ranil Wickremesinghe was also given a definite opinion by Prime Minister Modi.
Crisis
While Sri Lanka is stuck in economic crisis, the central government has given a loan of 25 thousand crore rupees. At the same time, the central government was asked whether it would act as a backstab to India. Moreover, Sri Lanka is already suffering from shortage of petrol and diesel. In order to deal with it, the central government has helped by sending petrol and diesel. But it was also asked whether it would be given to a Chinese spy ship coming to spy on India. In this situation, Ranil Wickramasinghe is going to travel to India in September. It was pressed to the point of threatening to consider approving it.

Prime Minister Modi laid out a nine-point action plan that included these. It has paid off. Following this, Sri Lanka has instructed China to suspend the spy ship’s voyage.
Governments are indifferent
This issue involves the states of Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Andhra Pradesh. The Chinese ship was about to go to Sri Lanka to spy on important places there. But, in this matter, these state governments have not taken any initiative. At least, MPs of the ruling parties in these states have not raised the issue in Parliament. DMK, Communist Party of India and YSR Congress seem not to see this as a serious issue, intelligence agencies say. These parties, who engage in activities to paralyze Parliament by raising issues, have been criticized for not talking about the security issues of their state.
Emergency advice
A letter from the Sri Lankan government to cancel the ship’s arrival has come as a shock to China. Following this, Chinese diplomatic officials in Sri Lanka have requested the Sri Lankan authorities to hold an emergency meeting to discuss the matter. Meanwhile, Sri Lankan press reported that there was a secret consultation between Sri Lankan President Ranil and Chinese Father Ji Gengkong regarding this matter. But the Sri Lankan government has denied this.
