No truth behind the false allegation by extremists - Defense Secretary

Defense Secretary Eng. Karunasena Hettiarachchi emphasized that there is no truth behind the false allegation by extremists who are spreading rumors that security in North and East are in danger. “Anyone can visit these areas and clarify on the matter that the Government has provided suitable livelihood environment for the people in these areas”, he added.


According to him, the lands that were acquired by the government forces during the war are being handed back to their legitimate owners not because of international requirement but only in fulfilling needs of our brothers and sisters.


Secretary Hettiarachchi made these remarks speaking at the "Nila Mehewara" Mobile Service Program held at the Richard Pathirana College in Galle on Saturday (3rd Dec.). The Mobile Service was inaugurated under a visionary concept of President Maithripala Sirisena and is organized by the Ministry of Home Affairs.


The ‘Nila Mehewara’ mobile service program is scheduled to be concluded on 14th January 2017 under the patronage of President. The first stage of the program was successfully concluded in Polonaruwa District.
