The nearby Sannar village is exposed to the worst danger, he has told gagana.lk after a visit there.

Nirmalanathan said he too, experienced the deafening sound of the artillery fire from the camp early in the morning.

The government needs to remove the camp from the area, he has proposed.

A youth of the village has told a government delegation a fortnight ago that the smoke emitted from the artillery fire was causing breathing difficulties too.

He said at a meeting of the task for a reconciliation mechanism that at least 15 pregnant women were aborted in the past two months.

Tabling the details in parliament in 2001, TNA MP M.A. Sumanthiran said the Army camps have seized 3,524 acres of civilian land at Mullikulam, Vidattaltivu, Silavatura and Sannar.

The Army commando training camp at Vidattaltivu was established after the war, in August 2009.
