The Murugan Kovil, a Hindu Temple in Kalmadu which was damaged and abandoned since 1998 due to terrorism, has been renovated after 12 years soldiers of the Sri Lanka Army.
The army troops commenced restoration work a few months ago to bring this temple back to its ancient grandeur upon completion of the government-initiated IDP resettlement programme in the area.
The first religious ceremony was held recently with the participation of Security Forces, Wanni Maj. Gen. Kamal Gunaratne and 61 Division Commander and other Army officials.
