News

The Public Utilities Commission will not approve any scheduled power cuts until February 17 in order to protect the rights of over 331,000 students sitting for the G.C.E.Advanced Level examination, Chairman of the Commission Janaka Ratnayake said.

“Any such power cuts during this period will be considered as unauthorized and illegal,” he said.

Meanwhile, the Ceylon Electricity Board announced that it will go ahead with the two and half hour usual power cuts.

A senior official said the board has decided to continue the demand management programme and that the CEB has informed the decision to the PUCSL.
