The Idalgashinna – Thotupola Kanda area, which has attracted a lot of local and foreign tourists, has been designated as a risk zone and it has been temporarily prohibited to visit it and pitch tents at night.
Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna Member of Parliament Sudarshan Denipitiya stated that this decision was taken due to the continuous occurrence of illegal activities, fatal accidents, safe fires and environmental pollution by leaving non-biodegradable waste in the area.
