"We can't buy Milk Powder for Kids" - Two families come to TN as refugees
Due to Sri Lanka's severe economic crisis, two families returned to Rameswaram as refugees by boat. Sri Lanka's economy is mostly based on tourist arrivals, tea plantations in the hills, and textile industry. The global corona outbreak has had a complete impact on tourism, tea cultivation, and clothing manufacture in sri lanka since march 2020. As a result, Sri Lanka's foreign exchange inflows were significantly hampered, and the country began to undergo a steady economic downturn. The soaring prices of key commodities have had a significant impact on the people of Sri Lanka. An egg costs Rs 36 in Sri Lankan rupees, tea costs Rs 100, rice costs Rs 200, onions cost Rs 250, and chicken costs Rs 1,000.
The indian Coast Guard rescued all 6 stranded people by hovercraft and took them to the indian Coast Guard camp in the hall, where they were handed over to the Marine police, based on information provided by fishermen fishing in the vicinity that several refugees had landed in the Fourth Sand Reef region.
During the Marine police inquiry, Gajendran (24), a Jaffna local, returned to Jaffna from the Erode district Refugee Camp in 2016. He was married to Mary Clary, a Jaffna native, who was 24 years old at the time. Nishant, the couple's four-month-old son, is the couple's first child. In 2016, Theori (28) returned from the Gudiyatham Refugee Camp in sri lanka to Chilaw, Mannar District. When her husband abandoned her, she was joined by her 9-year-old baby Esther and 4-year-old baby Moses.
