India to Sri Lanka ferry?

Hi I've heard there was a passenger ferry from India to Sri Lanka but I'm reading reports its been suspended. Can anyone shed any light on this? If it is suspended does anyone know of any other ship that will take passengers? Thanks, dan

I was chasing this dream a year ago. There used to be one, a long long time ago. People seemed to think it would start again soon with the end of the civil war but that's all I could find out about it in Colombo.

"There used to be one, a long long time ago"

A few decades ago, Was planned to start again around two years ago , then the plans were scrapped in a political retaliation game between India & Sri Lanka.
