During his recent visit to Sri Lanka, Prime Minister Narendra Modi met with the island country's 1996 World Cup-winning cricketers, including Sanath Jayasuriya and Aravinda de Silva and recalled India's 1996 tour amid unrest as a symbol of strong ties between the two countries.
During the interaction he praised the cricketers and recalled when Team India extended a helping hand to the nation that was rocked by bomb blasts just days ahead of the tournament which it was co-hosting with India and Pakistan.
The cricketers thanked India for support during Sri Lanka's economic crisis and requested help developing a stadium in Jaffna.
The video of the interaction from Saturday was released on the YouTube channel of the Prime Minister's Office today.
Cricketer Jayasuriya said, "When we had unrest, problems in Sri Lanka, you and the government helped us a lot. We are always grateful to you for helping Sri Lanka."
Jayasuriya, who is also the current Sri Lanka head coach, requested PM Modi to support Sri Lanka in its aim of bringing international cricket matches to Jaffna by building an international-level stadium.
"As the coach of Sri Lanka, at the moment we play all over Sri Lanka except Jaffna. If India can help us to bring international ground in Jaffna, there will be a big help for the people in Jaffna North and Eastern parts...I have a small request, if this can be done? ..."
