President Maithripala Sirisena is to launch a campaign to educate the people on recent political developments and the work carried out by his Government.
For this purpose he will hold mass public rallies in every district, he told the Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP) Central Committee meeting at his Paget Road residence.
He has asked parliamentarians and electoral organisers in the district to take part in these rallies. These rallies are in addition to the local government election campaign which has now been delayed due to an Appeal Court ruling.
A Sri Lanka Air Force Bell 212 helicopter belonging to the No. 72 squadron has crashed into the Madhuru Oya reservoir this morning, Air FOrce Media Spokesman Eranda Geeganage said.
Update: Five of the twelve passengers on board the bell 212 aircraft that crashed into the Maduru Oya today, have succumbed to their injuries, the SLAF said.
