“Your dedicated contribution in most risky districts, like in Jaffna or elsewhere in Colombo, Gampaha and Kalutara districts assisted Health authorities enormously. Many of those infected victims have had so many contacts at different levels and they had probably transmitted the virus without their own knowledge. Likewise, our forces and Policemen had to operate in multifaceted ways since many of those individuals were trying their best to hide information about the whereabouts and places they visited. Our dedicated troops and Policemen had to toil very much day and night to exactly confirm their 2nd, 3rd, 4th circles of contacts, etc even monitoring or tracking their mobile phones and all other modes of communication. All those minute and relevant information were traced by you, our intelligence forces and policemen who joined hands with Health authorities,” he pointed out.
