Apr 08, Colombo: Sri Lanka's Sinhala Buddhist extremist organization Ravana Balaya has decided to urge the authorities to ban the screening of Indian Tamil movies in Sri Lanka.
The secretary of the Ravana Balaya, Buddhist monk Iththepane Saddhathissa Thero said that a letter urging the ban would be handed over to the Public Performance Board tomorrow.
Ravana Balaya says that the decision has been taken to protest the influence of Tamil Nadu over the island's integrity.
Members of the extremist Buddhist monk group held a protest outside the Sri Lanka Cricket office on April 03 threatening to take action against the players who left for the IPL tournament.
Ravana Balaya launched a protest opposite the Indian High Commission in Colombo on March 20 condemning the attacks on Sri Lankan Buddhist monks in Tamil Nadu.
