The report on land grabs in the Northeast urged the UNHRC to appoint a special rapporteur to investigate the “systematic land grabs” in the traditionally Tamil Northeast.
Pasumai Thaayagam said in the report:
“Land grabs constitute serious structural violence, which, if left unaddressed, could threaten the chances of achieving a sustainable peace. Structural violence, with its associated consequences—such as violence mass atrocities, demographic changes, militarisation of Tamil territories, forcible evictions, internal displacements, extinction of cultural values of Tamils, denial of food, livelihood disasters, and irreversible damages to the environment—will lead to a complete ethnic cleansing of the Tamils from their traditional homeland.”
