President Gotabaya Rajapaksa said yesterday a centralised data platform was needed to expedite the issuance of passports and National Identity Cards (NICs) at a district level.

According to the PMD, the President had expressed these views at a meeting held recently at the Presidential Secretariat with members of the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19 Prevention.

President Rajapaksa had stated that a total of 3,297 Sri Lankan students and others on temporary visas who were repatriated from overseas were under quarantine.
