Last Saturday General Fonseka visited the peninsula and ordered his men there to lift the curfew.
The General who guided troops to rescue more than 300, 000 Sri Lankans held captive by the most brutal terrorists is equally concerned about the welfare of all Sri Lankans, regardless of ethnic group.
On Wednesday the Nalur Kowil hosted the biggest festival the North has seen in many decades since terrorism took hold of the region.
Many Sri Lankans who attended the festival wanted to personally thank General Fonseka for his proactive measures to help the people in Jaffna.
