The water levels in rivers are dropping amid a drop in the rainfall during the past 24 hours receding due to the low rainfall received during the past 24 hours ended at 3.30 pm today, the Irrigation Department said.

Director (Hydrology) P. Hettiarachchi said the water levels in the Kalu Ganga and the Gin Ganga was decreasing gradually but there was no change in the flood situation at Baddegama.

    This is a curse for this country

    This is a pathetic situation for all the Sri Lankans and cannot be digested and whatever the case may be these are natural disasters cannot be halted or stopped by human beings. On the other hand we can take precautions and protections to a certain extent only if with some beforehand signs and signals announced by the concerned authorities and respective departments. Anywhere it happens we feel the pain deeply.Our Tri Forces are engaged in a laudable service day
