Great comment !

‘’One issue particularly preventing returned IDPs from truly ‘settling’
back home is the high military presence in the north and east. Invasive visits
and the monitoring of civilians by members of the security forces contribute to
a sense of general insecurity, while the military’s economic activities are
also barriers to those who have returned who find themselves facing increased
competition which either squeezes them out of the market, or prevents them from
re-joining it completely.

Indeed, these activities are in contradiction with the LLRC
recommendations, which called for the military to reduce its presence and stop
carrying out economic activities. Unbelievably, while the military continues
with such activities regardless, the respective LLRC recommendation is marked
as ‘completed’ on the government’s website.

In the current draft resolution the Human Rights Council ‘calls upon
the Government to facilitate the effective implementation of durable solutions
for IDPs, including the long-term displaced.’ With Sri Lanka’s track record
with regards to implementation, as described above, a strong vote will be
needed to push the Government of Sri Lanka to take its own commitments to its
citizens seriously, including the LLRC recommendations’’ – Can the UN Human
Rights Council get Sri Lanka to take its commitments to its citizens seriously?
