President Anura Kumara Dissanayake is set to travel to Nuwara Eliya today (11) to inaugurate the Central Province segment of the “A Nation United” national campaign, according to the President’s Media Division (PMD).
During his visit, the President is also expected to participate in several engagements in the area.
The “A Nation United” initiative was introduced as a nationwide effort to combat the spread of illicit drugs. Authorities have identified drug-related issues as a significant social challenge affecting communities in the up-country region.
The programme seeks to address this concern through a broad awareness drive involving multiple stakeholders, while also supporting the social and economic upliftment of affected communities, the PMD stated.
The event in Nuwara Eliya will further include a ceremony to honour 62 police officers in recognition of their active role in conducting drug-related raids
