Indian Union Home Minister P Chidambaram said Sri Lanka has not done enough to rehabilitate displaced Tamils and asked Colombo to allow the Red Cross to take up relief and give media access to refugee camps in the strife-torn areas.
India had allocated Rs 500 crore for rehabilitating Lankan Tamils, but the rehabilitation plan was not ready in Sri Lanka, "We regret this," Minister said in Karaikudi, his constituency Monday.
He also said that Sri Lankan Tamil refugees would not be forced to go back but the Indian government will make all arrangements for them to return if they volunteer to go back.
