Taking into consideration the present national disaster situation of the country Government should cut their unnecessary expenditure and abolish the decision taken on allocating a huge sum of money to purchase luxurious vehicles for Parliamentarians with immediate effect and utilize these money for the benefits of landslide and flood victims according to the President of Government Nursing Officers Association Saman Ratnapriya.Addressing a Media Briefing held at the Government Nursing Officers Association at Punchi Borella this evening(29) Saman Ratnapriya has stated that as there is no proper National Disaster Management Policy in the country at present to prevent floods every year many districts and roads are submerged as a result of heavy showers .
A National Disaster Management Policy should be implemented in the country as soon as possible to prevent heavy floods and landslides in future and should remove all unauthorized constructions which build by blocking natural waterways and canals he has stressed.
Officials of the Government Nursing Officers Association are due to leave for the centers where the displaced persons are located to distribute the relief aid collected through public.
