MoD to rebuild house of military 'war hero'

The Ministry of Defence (MoD) announced on Friday that it would rebuild the house of a DH Suranga Dharmarathne, who fought for the Sri Lanka Special Task Force (STF).

The MoD Seva Vanitha Unit (SVU) has been responsible for housing projects under the directive of the secretary of defence Gotobaya Rajapaksa since 2006.

 "A benignant decision was taken to complete the partially built house of differently-able valiant war hero, Constable DH Suranga Dharmarathne of Sri Lanka Special Task Force (STF) with a view of uplifting his livelihood at a brief function held at the Ministry premises," said the Ministry Defence in a statement.
