Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 Thank you. We will follow your guidance.

¶ 02 However, power has been cut without notice — including yesterday in parts of Colombo for two hours and in some places for half an hour. In my view, even the Opposition Leader’s office at Colombo 7 had a daytime outage longer than half an hour. Why without notice?
