Tamil National Alliance (TNA) highlights the “dangers” arising from the post-war influx of Sinhalese into the predominently Tamil Jaffna peninsula and the Wanni by drawing attention to the construction of permament Sri Lankan Army camps in the in the region, reports Express Buzz. Suresh Premachandran, who is contesting from Jaffna District, said that the construction of permanent camps meant the transformation of the existing camps into family stations, which in turn, would mean a great increase in the population of the Sinhalese. This fear stems from the fact that the Sri Lankan Army is almost exclusively Sinhalese. “The army has about 40,000 troops now in the Wanni.Very soon, the troops’ families will join them. Once a permanent settlement comes up, infrastructural facilities like Sinhalese schools and Buddhist temples will come up, and the ethno-cultural character of the Wanni will change,” Premachandran said. Tamil nationalists point out that the predominantly Tamil Wanni has been substantially denuded of Tamils by the war, which had gone on for 30 years. The existing Tamil population has been impoverished by the war, especially in the last two years of it. Further, C. Sridharan, another TNA candidate in Jaffna, is quoted by Sudar Oli daily as saying that the Army is constructing 4,000 family quarters at Kokkavil. There would soon be at least 8000 school going Sinhalese children, for whom Sinhalese schools would have to be opened, he said. “Similar family stations will come up in Iyakkachchi, Palai and Jaffna,” he warned.
