Another new house constructed at Parakaduwa under the supervision and the manpower of the 4 SLLI was vested in a Lance Corporal who suffered serious injuries due to an LTTE mortar attack on 23 January 2009. The entire construction cost a little over Rs 1.3 million, footed by troops of the 4 SLLI. The house was formally vested in the War Hero on 17 November during a brief ceremony.

Meanwhile, a similar house constructed with the manpower of 6 SLLI troops for the family of a fallen War Hero at Uhana was vested in Mrs H.M Chandra Kanthi, the beloved spouse of late War Hero, Lance Corporal Tikiri Banda who laid his life on behalf of the motherland in Nagar Kovil area due to a mortar attack of ruthless LTTE on 16 February 2008.
