The Supreme Court has issued a notice to four persons including Northern Province Chief Minister C.V.Vigneshweran to appear before the court on 12th,13th and 17th of May over a petition filed at the Court against  Federal Resolution  recently passed at the Northern Provincial Council.

The Petition filed at the Supreme Court has suggested that the proposal adapted by Northern Provincial Council seeking a federal solution to the long standing issue of gaining political independence for  the Sri Lanka's minority Tamil Community may have lead to a division in the country and reemergence of Terrorism.

The proposal on federal resolution which requested the merge of Northern  and Eastern Provinces for a federal system of governance under the new constitution was presented to the Northern Provincial Council by Chief Minister C.V Vigneshweran .
