    1. After the end of the 30-year civil war in Sri Lanka in 2009, the northern areas that had been controlled by Tamil rebels became heavily militarized by the Sri Lankan government. 2. The army immediately established new Security Force Headquarters in Kilinochchi and Mullaitivu and began shifting army divisions into the region. 3. Today there are over 20 army divisions stationed in the Northern Province, with over half of the country's total army divisions located there.

    How much militarised has been post-war Northern Sri Lanka?

    Usually there is a discussion among arring factions at the end of a war to find a political solution and to
    move on to economic development.
    In the case of Sri Lanka a 30-yr war was over on 18 May 2009 and the following day the area that had been
    under the control of the armed rebels including the final warzone was made out of bounds for the public and
    ICRC and shifting of army divisions into the region began at once. On 1 June 2009 Security Forces
    Headquarters were established in Kilinochchi and Mullaitivu. Post-war PsyOps on the people by the Army
    had already been planned ( https://www.scribd.com/document/440612550/Sri-Lanka-21C-PsyOps-on-the-

    b. It is curious that a printout of the List of Sri Lanka Army formations reveals the original information
    which has been ‘’disappeared’’ from the online article a few years ago:
    i. current online statement: References 3: Two Security Forces Headquarters established in Mullaitivu,
    Kilinochchi Archived 2011-09-16 at the Wayback Machine
    ii. printout says: References 3: Two Security Forces Headquarters established In Mullaitivu, Kilinochchi
    (http//www.dailynews.lk/2009/06/01/sec02.asp) Archived(https/wweb/eb.archive.org/20110916….... please
    print the article and see.

    c. SFHQ-J website, http://www.cimicjaffna.com/ which had deleted News Archives 2010-2019 on 31


    December 2019, speaks of heightened PsyOps and much more.

    d. North began to be encircled with military camps after the 1961 non-violent Satyagraha by Tamils in front
    of Jaffna District Secretariat against ‘’Sinhala Only’’ because N.Q.Dias,  the Prime Minister's Secretary,
    thought that there would be armed uprising in 25yrs' time( https://groundviews.org/2014/09/17/review-of-
