*After completing the first term in office, the Transnational Government of
Tamil Eelam�s (TGTE) Prime Minister Mr. Visuvanathan Rudrakumaran,
dissolved the Parliament on October 1, 2013.

The TGTE Election Commission then took over the responsibility to hold
elections for the 2nd term of the TGTE Parliament. The Chief Election
Commissioner Mrs. S. Sridas along with her other Commissioners around the
world started to organize the elections.

Nominations were accepted by respective Country Election Commissions to
elect 112 Members of Parliament (MPs). Countries where the nominations were
filed are: Canada, United Kingdom, United States of America, Australia,
Germany, Switzerland, Ireland, France, Denmark, Norway and New Zealand.

Even though arrangements were made to conduct elections in all these
countries, timely withdrawal of groups who were unwilling to go along with
TGTE agenda in the past, have resulted in all the candidates elected
unopposed.

This heralds a remarkable welcome development in the Tamil Diaspora.

Diaspora�s role for the freedom of Tamils in the island of Sri Lanka.

*ABOUT TRANSNATIONAL GOVERNMENT OF TAMIL EELAM (TGTE):

*Transnational Government of Tamil Eelam (TGTE) is a new political concept,
formed after the mass killing of Tamils in the final months of the war in
2009.

It is a new political formation based on the principles of nationhood,
homeland and self-determination. The raison d�etre for the TGTE is lack of
political space inside the island of Sri Lanka for the Tamils to articulate
and realize their political aspirations fully due to Constitutional
impediments, racist political environment and military strangulation; and
the coordination of diaspora political activities based on democratic
principles and the rule of law.

TGTE held internationally supervised elections in 12 countries. These
elections were held to ensure that core believe of democracy be upheld
within the TGTE and to demonstrate TGTE's belief and reliance upon
democratic ideals. TGTE has a bicameral legislature and a Cabinet. Although
an elected body, TGTE does not claim to be a government in exile. The
Constitution of the TGTE mandates that it should realize its political
objective only through peaceful means. The TGTE next elections will be held
on October 26, 2013.

The TGTE promulgated a Freedom Charter on May 18, 2013 incorporating
�Freedom Demands� of the Tamils across the globe.

Presently, in addition to the campaign for an international investigation,
the TGTE is also campaigning for an International Protection Mechanism and
the release of documents pertaining to Tamils prepared by the Office of the
Special Advisor of the Secretary-General on the Prevention of Genocide.

TGTE believes that the referendum among the Tamils inside the island of Sri
Lanka and the Tamil diaspora will contribute to the political resolution of
the Tamil national conflict.

So far, the human cost has reached 100,000 as it grows. There are also
90,000 Tamil war widows. The Tamil women, especially female bread winners
are subject to sexual abuse by the Sri Lankan security forces.
