Minister of Power Gamini Lokuge said that the necessary fuel requirements have been fulfilled and that they are planning to provide an uninterrupted power supply.

"We have received 10,000 MTs of diesel and it has been supplied to the Kelani Tissa power plant. So far there have been no breakdowns except for one or two turbines which have been fixed immediately," Lokuge said.

There’s furnace oil sufficient till January 22. The CEB has requested the Ministry to provide furnace oil in February. A supply of diesel is also being provided. Once the Norochcholai power plant resumes operations from January 22nd we hope that there won’t be any power outages, Lokuge added.

Find out facts and make up your mind first if there are power cuts or not because you say one thing and the CEB says another thing and people are very inconvenienced due to that. If all can stick to one decision, at least we can adjust our daily schedule accordingly.. don't forget that there are babies, elderly among us unfortunate people who don't have the luxury of generators!

Mr. Lokugae. High time you retire and give this ministry to someone who can do a good job of it. The parliament is full of pensioners and will need walking sticks for them to continue.

Ensure that your planning is implemented before you travel to the ideal place in the 134 bus
