The Hon. (Mrs.) Chamindranee Kiriella, Attorney-at-Law

Hon. (Mrs.) Chamindranee Kiriella raised a supplementary question on the recent three-week water crisis affecting about 17,000 consumers in 32 Grama Niladhari divisions in the Kundasale-Balagolla area. She said excess water released from the Victoria Reservoir, linked to the coal power issue, had disrupted supply in a sensitive area containing a Provincial Council, army camps and an industrial zone. She asked whether the previously proposed 2023 relocation of the Balagolla pump house to Haragama could be completed.
