The Hon. Imran Maharoof
Imran Maharoof raised a supplementary question on water supply problems in the Trincomalee District, particularly in Kinniya, Muttur, Thoppur and Thambalagamuwa, where low water pressure has led to water being supplied only every other day. He asked whether the Ministry has any immediate plans or projects to address the issue, noting population growth and increased consumer demand as contributing factors.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Thank you, Hon. Deputy Minister. My second supplementary question:
¶ 02 In the Trincomalee District, especially in Kinniya, Muttur, Thoppur and Thambalagamuwa, issues persist due to low water pressure, and in these areas water is supplied every other day through your Ministry. As you noted in your reply, population growth and the increase in consumers have caused this problem. Is there an arrangement to commence, very soon, any project that can resolve this?
