IDPs big business for state hangers-on
Internally Displaced persons (IDPs) have become a lucrative income generating business for highly connected persons in the government.
Disaster Relief Services Minister Rishard Badhiutheen’s younger brother has secured a money-spinning government contract to construct semi-permanent shelters in IDP villages, LAKBIMANEWS authoritatively learns. Thousands of shelters made of tin sheets are due to be installed in sprawling “welfare villages” for civilians displaced from the Wanni.Work has already begun on the sites. Meanwhile, Northern Province Governor Dickson Sarathchandra Dela has reportedly secured another lucrative contract to clear jungles in Vavuniya so that welfare camps may be set up.
Attempts to contact Minister Badhiutheen failed while Dela said a company had got the deal to clear jungle in Vavuniya and that “my son may be a director but I am not sure”.
