I'm a Jaffna Tamil and I say that we have no caste. There is no need to look at caste history. That history is not important, it can be buried and die with all other rubbish histories. Read books on the struggle for Tamil & Tamil Nations rather than this rubbish. WE ARE UNITED.

Though I don't fully agree with the stance fully, like it!
