Disna Mudalige
Kuruwita town in the Ratnapura District will be developed as a city
with adequate provisions for Sri Pada devotees and tourists by using
funds of Rs. 150 million from the Urban Development Ministry, said Power
and Energy Minister W.D.J. Seneviratne.
The Sri Pada devotees have been facing difficulties due to the lack
of basic facilities in the Kuruwita city which they pass on their
pilgrimage.
The new shopping complex constructed by the Urban Development
Ministry under the project spending Rs. 40 million was opened recently
for the public by Urban Development Minister Dinesh Gunawardena.
A new bus halt and a resting hall will also be constructed under
this. |
