4,000 war-displaced in north

More than 4,000 war-displaced Tamils live in 32 refugee camps in the north, says rehabilitation mnister D.M. Swaminathan.

He told parliament on October 07 that 4,737 persons of 1,318 families live in these camps in the vicinity of Jaffna town.

The government will take steps for their welfare, he said, adding their camps are not getting any government support since 2011.
