Do you know that when Vellupillai Prabhakaran started the LTTE, he was just 18 years old, an age while most of you are in school or college! He was a shy man, but a born leader. He was single minded and believed in sacrifices to achieve the goal of freedom. He was first to create suicide squads.
His idols were Subhas Chandra Bose (he too founded the military group of INA) and Bhagat Singh.
Also, interestingly, he died just three days before Rajiv Gandhi's death anniversary and two days after the Congress, led by the widow of the man Prabhakaran had killed, returned to power.
