Sri Lanka’s Defence Secretary Gotabhaya Rajapaksa has donated Rs 5 million rupees towards the construction of new living quarters for monks at the Bellana Sri Dharmapala Pirivena in Agalawaththa, which the Sri Lankan Air Force will help to construct.
Rajapaksa handed over the donation at a ceremony held at the Ministry of Defence, which was attended by monks from the vihara and the Commander of the Air Force, Air Marshal Kolitha Gunathilake. The money will be used to build a new five-storey construction for the monks of the vihara.
The Ministry of Defence reported that
“Labour support for this noble effort will be provided by the Sri Lanka Air force.”
