“India was also keen to assist in the complete restoration of the railway line in the north,” it said.

The statement said that in her meeting with Rajapaksa, Rao was of the view that Sri Lanka had made considerable success in resettling the displaced families in the north and the east, with the number now standing at less than 70,000.

In her discussions, Rao stressed the need for a political settlement and devolution of powers to address the aspirations of the Tamil minority, official sources said in New Delhi.

The two sides discussed problems faced by fisherman from both countries, the proposed coal-based power generation project in Trincomalee, and the necessity for understanding between India and Sri Lanka on the protection of the environment and the eco-systems, the statement in Colombo said.

Rao, who had earlier served in Colombo as India’s high commissioner, conveyed an invitation from Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to Rajapaksa to visit India soon. India has allocated Rs.500 crore for the relief and rehabilitation of the war-hit Tamil civilians in Sri Lanka.

Australia announces Rs 47.2 lakhs in grants to celebrate International Women’s Day

To celebrate International Women’s Day on 8 March, Australia announced further grants under the Direct Aid Program to India to support non-governmental organisations working with women and children. Australia will give Rs 3.5 lakhs to Delhi- based STOP for their work to rehabilitate young women who have been the victims of trafficking; Rs 3.7 lakhs to the Trinity Rural Development Service from Tamil Nadu to improve healthcare for underprivileged women and children; and Rs 10 lakhs to KATHA, to support their work providing education in slum communities.

“These grants will assist disadvantaged women and children to access a range of education and healthcare services, and so help them to achieve their potential” said Australian High Commissioner, Mr Peter Varghese.

To date in 2009-10, Australia has supported Salaam Baalak Mumbai with a Rs 10 lakh grant for their work with street children; Magic Bus Mumbai with a Rs 10 lakh grant to use sport as a development tool; and Rs 10 lakhs for ASHA New Delhi to provide educational support to slum children.

Gender equality is a guiding principle of Australia’s international development assistance. Australia focuses on three areas: women’s political and economic empowerment, reducing violence against women, and improved health and education outcomes for women.

The Direct Aid Program is a small grants scheme supporting grassroots development. Projects cover education, healthcare, income generation and the environment. The program has a particular focus on women, children and disadvantaged groups.

Since 2001, DAP has funded more than 130 projects in India. More than Rs 4 crores (one million Australian dollars) has been distributed to date. This represents a significant contribution by Australia to small development initiatives in India.
