CHENNAI April 10. The State president of the Janata party, V.S. Chandralekha has expressed surprise at the LTTE spokesman, Anton Balasingham's reported statement that India should `forgive and forget' the assassination of the former Prime Minister, Rajiv Gandhi.

In a statement issued here, she said "If the LTTE spokesman wants to promote the welfare of Tamils of Sri Lanka, then he should ask his leader, V. Prabhakaran and his deputy, Pottu Amman, to accept responsibility for the assassination, and surrender before the trial court in India and willingly suffer the sentence passed by the court".
