TN police watch Sri Lankan refugee camps
Sri Lankan refugee camps, particularly those in southern and central Tamil Nadu, are under the police scanner in view of United Progressive Alliance Chairperson Sonia Gandhi's visit to Karaikudi on Saturday.

She will participate in the inaugural function of an auditorium constructed by Union Finance Minister P. Chidambaram for Alagappa University and attend a rally at Karaikudi.

There are about 108 Sri Lankan refugee camps in the State. According to a rough estimate, more than 100,000 Sri Lankan Tamils are living in various parts of the State.

Tamil Nadu Additional Director General of Police, Law and Order, Vijay Kumar, had chalked out a plan of action to monitor Sri Lankan refugees.
