‘Clean Sri Lanka’ Urges Responsible Waste Disposal at Sacred Relic Exposition

Date:

The “Clean Sri Lanka” programme has called on all devotees visiting the Sri Dalada Maligawa (Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic) during the ongoing “Siri Dalada Dekma” exposition to refrain from bringing non-biodegradable items such as polythene and to maintain cleanliness in and around the temple premises.

In a statement, the President’s Media Division (PMD) reminded visitors to dispose of waste only in designated areas and to act responsibly in preserving the sanctity of the sacred site.

The “Clean Sri Lanka” initiative, a flagship government programme, aims to foster environmental, social, and ethical awareness while promoting a cleaner, waste-free society. Special activities have been launched around the temple to support this mission during the period of religious observances.
