This is a map I picked up from a book shop in Killinochi in rebel held north Sri Lanka.I is sold to school children and is the only version authorsed to be held in the LTTE controled areas.
The map is not recognised by any other country in the world...and respresents more than the area currently held by the LTTE.
I had the map framed and it now hangs in my bed room.
It is in Tamil.

and Rajesh forgot to add an interesting piece of history about the near "Red Alert" situation that was caused when he forgot about the map and left it.. ...unaccompanied on the baggage trolley.....at the Sri Lanka International Airport departure lounge.
A group of Sri Lankan custom offiers and Sri Lankan Policemen found the map and started announcement on the PA system....looking for the legal owners of the map!!!
They alomost acknowledged the content of this harmless map and stamped the first official acceptance of the Tamil Elam (by a SriLankan offical)...and handed over the map to a very tense Rajesh Sundaram!!!!
that looks exciting...sir even your bedroom is full of LTTE stuff..lol:) Sometimes i feel you are one of them....just joking...dont take it very seriously
