Indian Tamil Sri Lanka Erotic

Indian Tamils in Sri Lanka (also called Hill Country Tamils, Up-Country Tamils, Estate Tamils, Plantation Tamils) comprise approximately 4.1% of the Sri Lankan population per the 2012 Census — approximately 840,000. The community is descended from Tamil indentured laborers brought from southern India to Sri Lanka by the British in the 19th c. (predominantly 1830s-1880s) for tea plantation labor in the Central Highland region (Nuwara Eliya, Badulla, Kandy districts). Distinct from the longer-resident Sri Lankan Tamil community of the Northern and Eastern Provinces by historical-political identity, by the British-colonial-era arrival, by their historically marginalized economic position as plantation workers, and by the post-1948 statelessness imposed by the Sri Lankan government — the 1948 Ceylon Citizenship Act stripped citizenship from approximately 1 million Hill Country Tamils, leaving them stateless until the 1964 and 1974 India-Sri Lanka agreements partially resolved the issue (with substantial repatriation to India through the 1980s). Concentrated in the tea-producing districts of the Central Highlands.
