In response to a request, made by the Principal at Illavalai Girls School, the troops of 531 Brigade of the 53 Division of the Security Force Headquarters Jaffna (SFHQ-J), offered their assistance to immediately remove a 140-year old dilapidated school building which remained a life-threat to the students for a long time as the school authorities could not afford for its removal from the premises.
513 Brigade troops of 11 Sri Lanka Light Infantry (11 SLLI) and 14 Gemunu Watch (GW) took the challenge and meticulously bulldozed it without causing any injury to anyone. Debris was also taken away by the troops considering the inconvenience that would be caused for students.
The principal, impressed with the Army support, thanked the troops profusely and provided them with refreshments after the removal of the remnants.
