Filtered water project launched

Residents of Sirimapura in Sri Lanka's North Central Province began purchasing filtered water through a project launched by the Sri Lanka-China joint experimentation initiative. The project provides over 5,000 liters of filtered water daily, with unfiltered water also being supplied free of charge. The filtered water initiative was introduced in response to the widespread prevalence of kidney disease in the area..Pix by Pradeep Pathirana
