The United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR) in Sri Lanka has suspended the distribution of shelter cash grants to displaced returnees due to shortfalls in funding. The humanitarian agency said that the funding was suspended from the 8th of this month.

But for sure the government can spend some of the funds recovered from KP for this purpose rather than squander it on election campaigns.

UNHCR, is it because of real shortfall in funds or that you are not happy with the GOSL? Better to tell the truth, rather than 'beat around the bush.'

This is not good news. The inability to help returnees with housing could impede the process of their being released from the welfare centres. The UN and the West have always been demanding quick resettlement of the IDPs. How can the UNHCR resort to a course of action that is in conflict with their avowed intentions?
