IDPs In Need Of Permanent Housing Facilities

By Mandana Ismail Abeywickrema:- One year after the end of the war between the security forces and the LTTE, 73,000 displaced persons still remain in IDP camps in the North. Following the end of the war, the resettlement of the war-displaced became a post war crisis faced by the country, which also raised widespread international concern. The announcement and celebrations of liberation were soon overcome by calls to rehabilitate and resettle thousands of persons displaced in the North and East due to the three decade-long war. http://www.thesundayleader.lk/2010/05/16/idps-in-need-of-permanent-housing-facilities/
