About This Tool

It is well known that the Tamils of Sri Lanka occupy a very important position in the region because of their large number and population density. There are different types of militant groups in Tamil, and they hope to build a nation-state that will be respectful of ethnic differences. This led to the creation of various types of Tamil militant groups, with 62 teams assembled in this random tool.

These Tamil militant groups were formed in different eras with different purposes and objectives. Because of the large number of organizations, the government has no choice but to do so, and even some of the organizations in this generator have been declared illegal by the national government. They used weapons, violence, and illegal means to force the government to compromise, and were subsequently designated as terrorist organizations by other countries of the world and included in the list of terrorist organizations.
