Internally Displaced People is one of the most effected social groups according to the crisis of out breaking the virus.  The internal conflict of  the country has remained some social groups in the camps as evidences of the conflict. The internal conflict was finished in 2009, result of the conflict still remain in the country.  Some people have been confined to Internally Displaced Camps especially in Jaffna. Although the Government has a mechanism to resettle people who displaced due to the conflict, some people still live in the camps looking forward their future.
These groups were depending on the daily wage engaging some labour wok in the area but their income has been totally destroyed because of the locking down the country. Jaffna district has been identified as a high risk area which has high potential to outbreak the virus.
