A day-long legal advice camp on State land issues was held at the Sarvodaya Center in Anuradhapura with the participation of the public recently.
The camp was conducted by Transparency International Sri Lanka (TISL) jointly with OXFAM International’s Peoples Action for Right to Land.
More than 50 cases were reported and the complainants were advised on further course of action. The non-issue of permits for State lands occupied by the public, illegal sale of State land, take over and allocation of unlawfully occupied lands by the Government were among the reported cases.
