Chennai (PTI): The DMK would welcome creation of a separate 'Eelam', a homeland for Sri lankan Tamils, if it was achieved through a democratic process, party president and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M Karunanidhi said on Monday.
"We will be glad if a separate Eelam (state) is created (in the Island nation) by people voting for it," he told reporters here.
He said that "attempts of some opposition parties in Tamil Nadu to paint the UPA government at the Centre and the DMK government in the state as anti Sri Lankan Tamils" would not suceed.
"The opposition parties are trying to create an illusion among the public that my party is against Sri Lankan Tamils," he said.
