The �Organisation for Protecting Harbour Solidarity� has threatened to block all exports and imports to Tamil Nadu. The Sri Lankan trade union, based in Colombo, has said that it will block trade worth $2 billion or more.
Reports say that the organization is holding a protest rally in front of the Colombo harbour�s main gate. The Organisation is a pro-government movement.
The threat comes in the wake of Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J. Jayalalithaa�s and other politicians� putting pressure on the Indian government to take a tough stand in the UN resolution against Sri Lankan war crimes.
