The Disaster Management Ministry and Presidential Secretariat handed over 200 Browns TAFE 45 DI tractors together with bowsers to the Government Agents and District Secretarial Offices in the drought-affected areas.
The Browns Agriculture Division had the honour of being chosen by the Disaster Management Ministry and Presidential Secretariat as the preferred partner to join hands in this initiative.
President Maithripala Sirisena graced the occasion as the chief guest at the programme organised by the Presidential Secretariat and Minister Anura Priyadarshana Yapa was the chief guest at the programme organised by the Disaster Management Ministry.
Sharing his sentiments on the opportunity, Browns Agriculture Deputy General Manager Sanjaya Nissanka stated, “As an organisation we are honoured and yet humbled to have had the opportunity to take part in this noble initiative. We salute and appreciate the government’s strife in constantly seeking ways to ease the hardships of and also improve the lives of the rural residents of Sri Lanka. We hope to join hands with the government in similar programmes in the near future.”
