Sri Lankan navy organises medical camp for Tamils in Karainagar

The Sri Lankan navy organised a medical camp for Tamil civilians in the northern town of Karainagar, reported Sri Lanka’s Ministry of Defence.

Stating that the camp was of great benefit to the people in Kayts, the MoD went on to say it was organised by the navy “as a part of its social responsibility of looking after the people in the islands who always seek the assistance of the Navy for their day -to-day activities”.

“Rear Admiral Eric Jayakody, Commander Northern Naval Area graced the occasion as the chief guest,” added the MoD.
