Hindu
Ladies' College Building. Looks really nice with the beautiful Garden
in front. |
| IT Park |
|
This
is an IT training centre and a Cyber Cafe which charges 70 Rs an hour
to surf the internet. They are offering a lot of computer courses but
not very relevant and technical stuff. Most of the course were along
the lines of MS Office and Visual Basic. Jaffna needs a good IT training
institute which can turn the many needy yet intelligent youths into
skilled and marketable Computer Professionals. |

| Jaffna Railway Station |
|
 |
It
was sad to see Jaffna station in this condition. I guess for the past
several years from the time Indian Army left, there was no train service
to Jaffna. The station is full of gun shots and is basically ruined. |
| LTTE De-Mining Unit |
|
There
are two groups de-mining in LTTE controlled area and Jaffna. There is
a team from USA doing the de-mining in Jaffna. However this picture
was taken in Vanni where the LTTE has established their own de-mining
unit which is doing a good job but on a small scale. |
 |
| LTTE Police Station |
|
 |
This
was taken in Vanni. All police stations have been painted and all the
police force members have been given uniform. Also when we entered LTTE
controlled area we were greeted by a Police men "Vanakkam".
|
| Maaveerar Thuyilum Illam |
|
Could
not take a picture of the insides. Just managed to grab a photo of the
board while traveling back to Colombo. |
 |
| Mangoes |
|
 |
Ya
I know you all know about Jaffna mangoes, who doesn't!. This picture
was taken at St.John's College principal's house. Just wanted you all
to notice how low the mangoes hang off the tree. When we came back,
one of the things our guys bought in bulk was the famous Karuttha Kolumbaan
:-) |
| Nalur - Rear Entrance |
|
This
is from the rear entrance. Sooran Poore festival was to take place a
few days after this phoo was taken. What you see from this entrance
is Sooran's back side. |
 |
| Nalur Veill Cart |
|
 |
When
we took this picture it was quite dark so I edited the picture a little
so that the building would appear clearer. I hope the image does not
look discolored. |
| Nalur Temple |
|
Nalur
Temple. I think they have obtained enough money to maintain the temple.
Cameras are not allowed inside, so we were only able to take a picture
of outside of the temple. Inside as always looked very beautiful. :-) |
