Hon. Nalin Bandara Jayamaha raised concerns about operational failures at the Norochcholai coal power plant, citing two non-functioning coal conveyors, reduced generation capacity, and increased flue emissions due to the electrostatic precipitator being offline. He emphasized that statements alone cannot resolve the mechanical problems and implied the need for practical corrective action.

Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 Hon. Presiding Member, there is a serious situation at the Norochcholai coal power plant. Two coal conveyors are down; one plant is running at reduced capacity; flue emissions are higher because the ESP is offline. No statement can switch machinery back on.
