Security Force Headquarters-Jaffna (SFHQ-J) lending its helping hand once again to under-privileged civilians in the Jaffna peninsula constructed a new home for a poor family in the general area of Tholpuram central in Chullipuram after their plight was brought to the notice of Major General Dharshana Hettiarachchi, Commander, Security Forces, Jaffna by the Civil Affairs Officer of the 51 Division in the peninsula.

SFHQ-J and 51 Division troops with the backing of Corps of Engineering Service troops put up the new home with the funds given by the SFHQ-J under its Civil-Military Project within a very short period of time under the supervision of Major General Roshan Senevirathne, General Officer Commanding (GOC), 51 Division. 511 Brigade troops with 15 Sri Lanka National Guard troops serving the area contributed to the project and organized the warming ceremony.

Major General Hettiarachchi, gracing the formal warming and handover ceremony of the new home to the family as the Chief Guest on Thursday (9) invited the lady of the family to inaugurate the home by cutting a ribbon. Hindu rites and traditions were followed afterwards. At the same time, troops gifted them with a reusable gas cylinder for their cooking purposes and wished them well during the brief ceremony. Relatives of the beneficiaries were also present during the brief ceremony.
