Catholic church opposes turning Kachchatheevu island into tourist destination

Bishop of Jaffna, Rt. Rev. Dr. Justin Bernard Gnanapragasam, expressed his opposition on behalf of the diocese to the government’s plan to convert Kachchatheevu Island into a tourist destination.

“The island is a sacred place of worship, frequently visited by both Sri Lankan and Indian fishermen. Turning it into a tourist site would be an insult to the religion,” the Bishop told the media in Jaffna.
