Chairperson of the Seva Vanitha Unit Mrs. Ioma Rajapaksa handed over the keys of the newly built house to Lance Corporal Dananjaya VT of the Sri Lanka Army during the ceremony.
Lance Corporal Dananjaya is an inmate of the 'Mihindu Seth Medura' home for disable war heroes. He lost the use of his lower body due a wound sustained during the humanitarian operation at Pudumattalan in April 2009.
The house, built under the SVU war hero welfare initiatives was constructed through the labour commitment of the 4th Engineering Regiment of the Sri Lanka Army.
Senior security forces officials, parents of the war hero and a large number of people were present at the occasion.(MOD/KH)
