Hon. Ashoka Gunasena asked whether water from the Pothuhera tank could be used to supply nearby Weerambugedara, noting that the area lacks a natural water source and faces difficulties even in identifying sources for community water schemes. He requested ministerial intervention to provide an alternative solution if use of the Pothuhera tank is not feasible.
