Kattankudy sends 40 cooks to feed IDPs

Forty Muslim cooks from Kattankudy accompanied by two members of the Kattankudy Mosque Federation left Kattankudy for the Wanni yesterday morning in a bus, a pick up and a lorry full of cooking utensils to prepare meals for the people rescued by the security forces from the clutches of the LTTE in the North.

Secretary of the Kattankudy Mosque Federation M. Sabeel, said that the Federation is sending these cooks to the Wanni at their own expense on the request of President Mahinda Rajapaksa, conveyed through the Chief Presidential Advisor and MP Basil Rajapaksa. The Kattankudy Mosque Federation also sent relief goods to the Wanni IDPs some time ago.

Meanwhile it is said the Muslims displaced from the North by the LTTE in October 1990 are also collecting relief items to be given to the war victims in government controlled areas.
