Cabinet has today (06)has passed a proposal to legalize the Sri Lankan traditional Martial Art system 'Angampora" submitted by Minister of Housing ,Construction  and Cultural affairs Sajith Premadasa .

The "Angampora"martial art which was used by Sri Lankan patriots when they fought against British rulers  during the great Uva-Wellassa rebellion in 1817-18  was banned by the rulers  afterwards by declaring the pattriots who.led the rebellion as traitors .

However current government  has removed the traitorship imposed on local patriots recently .
