India has been involved with Sri Lankan Ethnic conflict owing to :
Answer: A
India's involvement stems from the ethnic linkages of the Tamils (printed 'Indian Tamili').
The Sri Lankan Tamils share language, culture and kinship with the Tamils of Tamil Nadu, and the conflict produced refugee flows and strong political pressure within India. This was the principal reason for India's involvement, from support to Tamil groups in the early 1980s to the Indo-Sri Lankan Accord of 1987 and the IPKF.
India's regional standing and its wish to keep outside powers away were secondary considerations that followed from the ethnic link, and goodwill as a neighbour does not explain the depth of involvement.
