"India should be demanding an independent high-level, credible inquiry into the atrocities committed during the last phase of the war and the human rights violations," party general secretary Prakash Karat told reporters here.
Responding to queries on the United Nations Human Rights Council meet at Geneva in March where the US is scheduled to move a Lanka-specific resolution, he said he cannot say in what form the issue will be raised or what the resolution will be about but "this should be India's stand."
