Hon. W.H.M. Dharmasena raised concerns about public inconvenience caused by the relocation of the UDA office to Badulla and the operation of an office in Kataragama, which is far from many areas of Monaragala District. He requested that the UDA office be re-established in Monaragala town, citing its central location and the long travel distances faced by residents from areas such as Iginigala and Siyambalanduwa.

¶ 01 Hon. Deputy Minister, my first supplementary: With the UDA office moved to Badulla, people suffer severe inconvenience. Meanwhile an office operates at Kataragama, which is at the edge of the District, forcing residents from places like Iginigala and Siyambalanduwa to travel about 130 km. I respectfully request that the UDA office be swiftly re-established in Monaragala town, the District’s center.
