Humanitarian assistance recognizes no boundaries, colour or creed, nor does a legitimate army approve any discrimination when it concerns well-being of any segment of the people for whom security is provided at state expense. The Sri Lanka Army, to be in consistent with this policy of goodwill, does extend its helping-hand at all times wherever they chose to serve. Eleven physically disabled civilians, most of who are impoverished and resident in Point Pedro and its suburbs, were this time fortunate to receive wheelchairs, donated by the Army at a simple ceremony, held at the Wallipuram Kovil premises on Friday (27).
