"We have connected the first six sites, and we will build 60 more towers in tandem with re-settlement," Dialog chief executive Hans Wijayasuriya told reporters Wednesday.

Sri Lanka's military wiped out the last remaining pocket of Tamil Tiger separatists from the northeastern Mullaitivu area in May, ending a 30-year war.


About 280,000 refugees are still kept in camps in Vavuniya awaiting re-settlement.

Key northern towns of Kilinochchi, Mullaitivu, as well as Pooneryn, Thunnukkai, Mankulam and Elephant Pass were now connected to its national network, the company said.

"Very soon re-settlement will start, already it has started (in some areas)," Brigadier Prasad Samarasinghe, who heads the signals corps of the Sri Lanka Army said.


"The soldiers are now re-organizing, still the clearing operations are starting. With this our heroes will have the facility to talk to their families and friends from today."
