Health Minister Nimal Siripala de Silva said that Nepali Premier Girija Prasad Koirala backed President Mahinda Rajapaksa’s decision to retaliate against LTTE terror, during a recent meeting he had with Koirala in Kathmandu.

The Nepalai Premier appreciated the action taken by the Sri Lankan government to neutralize the LTTE threat, he said.

The minister said that the government did not believe in war to settle the ethnic issue, but had no option but to meet the LTTE’s military challenge.
