A presidential task force has been set-up to curb the occurence of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) across the country.
Several prevention programmes for CKD were conducted with the cooperation of several Ministries and Departments last year.
In a bid to carry out more such programmes via this presidential task force and achieve this year's milestones, an annual action plan has also been prepared to this effect.
Accordingly, cabinet granted approval to a proposal put forward by President Maithripala Sirisena on Tuesday (Feb 12) to secure funds for the implementation of these programmes.
The Committee on High Posts has approved the nomination of Former Air Force Commander Air Chief Marshal (Retd.)
Former Chairman of SriLankan Airlines, Nishantha Wickramasinghe, arrested on allegation of corruption by the Commission to Investigate Allegations of Bribery or Corruption (CIABOC) has been remanded until July 1 by the Colombo Magistrate court.
