The National Water Supply and Drainage Board (NWSDB) today announced that drinking water supply will have to be restricted due to the prevailing drought which had dried up water sources in most parts of the country.
They said the continuous supply of drinking water for 24 hours would have to be restricted in this situation and water supply to hilly areas will be under low pressure.
NWSDB requested people to use water sparingly in these difficult times and requested to contact their emergency contact centre (1939) for more information. (Chaturanga Samarawickrama)
