The ceremony was held at the NCC Training Centre, Rantembe. About 800 school cadets from all over the island took part in the course.

Through his 30 years experience as a soldier in the North East war, he said the war which prevailed over three decades could be annihilated under the correct leadership of President Mahinda Rajapaksa.
