Sri Lanka has thanked the Tamil Nadu government for sending emergency relief supplies to communities affected by Cyclone Ditwah. Foreign Affairs Minister Vijitha Herath said he conveyed the government’s appreciation during a telephone call with Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin.
Tamil Nadu recently dispatched 950 metric tons of humanitarian aid, including rice, pulses, milk powder, sugar, clothing and blankets, to assist displaced families. The relief was sent aboard Indian Navy vessels from Chennai and Thoothukudi.
Herath said the support reflected the state’s solidarity during a difficult period and noted that people-to-people ties between Sri Lanka and Tamil Nadu would continue to strengthen. He added that goodwill and cooperation are expected to grow as recovery efforts progress. (Newswire)
