President Ranil Wickremesinghe has directed the resumption of the "Suraksha" student insurance program, which was temporarily suspended due to economic challenges. Starting from the first week of June, all school students across the island will once again be able to benefit from this insurance scheme. 
The Ella - Wellawaya main road will remain closed for traffic from 8.00 p.m. today (17) until 6.00 a.m. tomorrow (18) due to prevailing inclement weather conditions, the Badulla District Secretary said
Sri Lanka has not met 30% of its due commitments to the IMF programme by the end of April 2024, which translates to a total of 19 unfulfilled obligations, according to a report by Verité Research. 
The small fishing boats along the coasts of Mannar to Colombo via Galle, Hambantota to Pottuvil and Ampara are advised not to venture out to sea from 12 noon today until further notice. 
The National Building and Research Organisation (NBRO), on Saturday (May 18) issued early landslide warnings for several localities in four districts, to be in effect until 04.00 p.m. tomorrow (May 19). 
Due to pre-monsoonal conditions over the country and surrounding sea areas, prevailing showery and windy conditions are expected to enhance further during the next few days, according to the Meteorology Department. Copyright © 2007 - 2024 Col3neg. All Rights Reserved.
