Kinniya is one of the eleven divisions of Trincomalee District. It is located in the southern part of the district, about 16 km south of Trincomalee Town. Trincomalee District is the northernmost of the three districts in the Eastern Province.

The division spreads over an area of 146.9 km2, which is 5% of the land area of the district. Thus it is the second smallest division in terms of land area.

In the North the division borders with the Thampalakamam Bay, in the West with the Thampalakamam Division, in the South with the Kantale Division and in the East with the Seruvila and Mutur Divisions (the Mahaweli Ganga forms the border) as well as with the Koddiyar Bay. There are 31 Grama Niladhari (GN) Divisions and 99 villages within Kinniya Division. Furthermore, it contains two Local Government jurisdiction areas: the Kinniya Urban Council (UC) area and the Kinniya Pradeshiya Sabha (PS) area. The UC area contains about 17 GNs in the North of the division. The remaining area falls under the jurisdiction of the PS (14 GNs).

The total population of the division was estimated at 75,507 persons (or 16,641 families) in 2005. Thus it is the second largest division of the Trincomalee district in terms of population. The average population den-sity is 514 persons per km2.

Currently, Kinniya can be accessed from the A6 (Colombo-Trincomalee) using the B541 via Thampalakamam, or the A15 via China Bay and further via a newly built bridge between China Bay and Kinniya. This bridge is currently the longest bridge in Sri Lanka.

Kinniya Bridge 20-Oct-2009
The Kinniya bridge is seen in this photo dated on Oct. 20, 2009. The 398-meter-long bridge was ceremonially opened by Sri Lankan President Mahinda Rajapakse on Oct. 20, 2009 in Kinniya, about 350 kilometers northeast of the capital Colombo. Constructed across the Kinniya lagoon, the island's longest bridge was built with a financial assistance of 790 million rupees (about 6.87 million U.S. dollars) from Saudi Arabia. (Xinhua)
 
Here is a clip showing the road from Old Hospital to end of the Kinniya bridge. I captured this using my Blackberry while driving through that road on 6th Nov 2009.

நன்பர்களே!

கிண்ணியா நல்ல பல இலக்கியவாதிகளை நமக்கு தந்துள்ளது. இதில் பலர் இலை மறை காயாக கிண்ணியாவினுள்ளேயே அடங்கி விடுகிறார்கள். இவர்கள் எல்லோரையும் வெளியே கொண்டு வரும் முகமாக, "என் பக்கம்" எனும் புதிய பகுதியை சேர்த்துள்ளேன். இதில் இவர்களுக்கென்று தனிப்பக்கங்களும் தரலாமென்றுள்ளேன்.

நீங்கள் அறிந்த கிண்ணியா இலக்கியவாதிகளின் படைப்புக்களை அவர்களின் அனுமதியுடன் எனக்கு அனுப்பி வைக்கவும். admin@kinniyans.net
