The Security Force Headquarters, Jaffna has taken steps to allow devotees to perform religious rituals at the famous Hindu temple, Raja Rajeswari Amman Temple, located in the Palaly High Security Zone in Jaffna.
Since July 1990, the general public in the temple and the surrounding area were evacuated and the area was designated as a High Security Zone.
Although the Raja Rajeswari Amman Temple suffered some damage during the war, devotees say that the temple building is still sufficient for devotees to perform religious rituals.
It is reported that at that time this temple was a temple where special divine rituals were performed, which was greatly appreciated by the Hindu people, and that the devotees are extremely happy to have the opportunity to perform divine rituals again after 35 years.
