DMK-backed TESO today announced holding a series of events over the Tamils issue, including picketing of the Sri Lankan Deputy High Commission here on March 5.
Tamil Ealam Supporters' Organisation (TESO) will also hold a meeting in Delhi on March 7 in which various political parties and human rights organisations are expected to participate, TESO member and Dravidar Kazhagam president K Veeramani told reporters after a TESO meeting chaired by DMK chief M Karunanidhi.
"On March five, a picketing of the Deputy High Commission will be held. On the same day DMK and VCK MPs will stage a protest outside the Parliament," he said.
The March 7th TESO meeting would discuss various matters pertaining to Sri Lankan Tamils, including their livelihood issues, he said.
He slammed the alleged cold-blooded killing of slain LTTE chief V Prabhakaran's 12-year-old son Balachandran and said this was indicative of war-crimes by the army during the last phase of the Eelam War.
TESO was revived last year by Karunanidhi.
