Minority ethnic Tamils in northern Sri Lanka voice concerns regarding ongoing neglect despite President Gotabaya Rajapaksa's promises of development. His prior role as defence minister during the civil war significantly impacted the Tamil separatist movement. Recent infrastructure projects, such as a railway and road, have not alleviated the socio-economic gap between the predominantly Sinhalese and Tamil populations. Observers note the ongoing divide and the insufficient government focus on providing equitable opportunities for the Tamil community.
The northern area of Sri Lanka remains underdeveloped, despite the promises made by President Gotabaya Rajapaksa during his campaign.
The Tamil community in the north struggles to see the benefits of development initiatives, reflecting a persistent divide between Sinhalese and Tamils.
