Get them out!
All Tamils get out!
Leave me! Leave us! No! I won't go!
'Breaking news.'
'Sri Lankan president
has been assassinated.'
'The killing was carried
out using a human bomb.'
'According to the local
police this incident took place..'
'..when he was coming out
of Colombo's Army Headquarters.'
'It is being alleged that
the LTF could be behind this.'
'After this incident it is possible that
peace attempts will get deferred.'
'And the situation there
could get tense again.'
Ruby.
I want to say everything.
The truth"
I cannot carry..
"this burden anymore.
You've been drinking again.
I've told you.
whatever is bothering you,
share it
You will feel lighter.
Otherwise, go home.
Betrayal".
Power..
Greed..
Can I talk about such
things before your God?
Yes, You can.
The last witness.
They killed him as well.
It was a game.
A conspiracy.
Who are you?
It's been three years since
you've been coming here...
And What's this conspiracy
that you are talking of?
What wrong did our
Prime Minister do?
Why did we let him die?
What?
We could've saved
our prime minister.
What do you know?
'I was there, Father.'
'It was the darkest phase
in the history of Sri Lanka.'
'The clashes between the
largest ethic group Sinhalese.'
'..and the minority Tamils..
...had was going through
its worst crisis.'
'This ethic violence claimed thousands
of Tamilian civilian lives...'
Abuses..
'The supply of basic
necessities like food..'
'Water..'
'Everything was stopped.'
'A lot of families were destroyed.'
'And thus thousands of Tamilian
youth turned rebellious..'
'And joined the LTF leader Anna.'
Long Live Eelam
Long Live Eelam
'Anna refused to surrender
before the Sri Lankan forces.'
'And raised the demand
for a separate Tamil state.'
'And thus began,
the endless killings.'
'These bloodbath made
many Tamils lose their homes.'
'And they sought refuge in India.'
'Indian government
expressed its concern..
...and decided to intervene.'
Peace Accord is an important
political decision.
I will be going ahead with it.
We will be signing
the Peace Accord tomorrow.
To make sure that no inhumane
activity takes place..
..during the Provincial
Council Elections.
"I've decided to send
a peace force to the island.
'Prime Minister signed
the historical Peace Accord".
...with the Sri Lankan
President today.'
'He also declared the
Provincial Council Elections..'
'So that once again there is
peace and normalcy in the island.'
'The first group
of the peace force.. '
'..reached there with an intention
of making the rebels surrender arms.'
'In the hope that peace
and normalcy returns.'
'But Anna rejected
the Peace Accord.'
'19 LTF cadres committed
suicide in Sri Lankan custody.'
'And Anna blamed lndia..
...and Sri Lanka for it.'
'He said that this peace accord
is not in the favor of the Tamils.'
'He feared that if
they surrendered arms..'
'..then once the
peace force leaves.'
'..all the Tamils in
the island will be killed.'
'Hence..
'He was not ready to negotiate.'
This is going to be a long war.
'Indian Army launched
an operation to capture Anna.'
'But our soldiers got killed . '
' since Anna was
already in the know of..
..our operational
details and intels
'And from here on,
began a gruesome guerilla war..'
'..between Anna
and the peace force.'
Our soldiers are getting killed.
Operation details
are getting leaked.
RD, I hope you are aware
of what your boys are up to.
But we had warned you,
not to send the forces.
But it was your General
who assured the PM..
..that we'll disarm
them in 72 hours.
And here we are, after one year.
If this continues,
we're sure to get embarrassed.
PM needs is answerable
to the people.
Mr. Cabinet Secretary, we are not
fighting with a traditional army.
This is a locally
entrenched guerilla force.
We just can't make out who's
a militant and who's a civilian!
We don't even have proper maps!
But yes, if they attack us,
we will retaliate.
This shouldn't become
another Vietnam for us.
How much more can
we embarrass the PM?
RD?
The fact is,
Anna doesn't trust us anymore.
And Perhaps we ourselves are
responsible for creating this situation
If we loosen the grip any further"
..it will be a golden opportunity for
the west to get inside the island.
And this is already happening
Guruji all of a sudden
going to Singapore..
..with Murthy for
a spiritual tour..
ls it a coincidence?
So, Mr. Murthy,
..you wish to be the
lord of the largest democracy?
I've always been saying..
..that there's a conspiracy
to overthrow the government.
Only military action won't suffice.
All these are clear cut signs.
Overt operations
won't be enough now.
RD, get all the covert ops ready.
This Peace Accord needs to succeed,
at any cost.
That's all. Good luck.
RD..
Stay.
Enough of these discussions.
Media is asking a lot of questions.
You'll have to intervene.
I'm ready..
..to use all the
intelligence at my disposal.
But who are we really fighting?
You, too, need to understand.
The situation is very sensitive.
Anna won't surrender arms.
He is adamant.
And others are waiting
to jump in to win his trust.
We will lose the island.
And that will be a serious
national threat for us.
Now is not the time
to go by the book.
The time to question"
..what is legitimate
and what is not, is over.
You know very well what
needs to be done with Anna.
Send in your best men.
We need to form a Provincial
Council there, before Diwali.
Swarup, get me Major Vikram.
I want him in Delhi
in the next 24 hours.
Urgent.
Ruby, I need to go.
Otherwise, you know.. - Look,
I know, I am an army wife.
And I need to hold
my head high and all that.
And I will.
But it's been four years.
And I just keep missing you.
How do I stay normal?
Don't worry.
Everything will be normal soon.
Oh yes, and avoid all these news.
And take care of yourself.
If you are so concerned
about me then don't go.
Six months, at least.
Till I hold you again, like this.
So, what's happening?
Bala has been informed.
Jaffna safe house
has been activated.
Vikram..
Still as restless as ever?
Old habits die hard, sir.
Relax.
Swaru p.
Additional director.
Of course, I remember, sir.
I had met you briefly
during the Mizoram operation.
Good memory.
Sir.
Anyway, talking about work..
Do you know anything
about lndo-Lankan situation?
I've done my homework, sir.
You know nothing.
You'll be solely responsible for all
covert operations of RAW in Jaffna.
Sir.
PM is concerned about
the situation there.
His clear agenda is to execute
Provincial Elections successfully
The Small militant groups
there have surrendered.
But The most powerful group,
the most ferocious one, LTF..
is still resistant.
Do we have a strategy, sir?
Step one:
Break LTF.The most likely candidate
for that:
Mallaya.He's Anna's Man Friday.
Very loyal.
