The Public Health Inspectors Union has requested the public to refrain from organising dansal and pandals for Vesak along with any other events gathering large groups.
Making a statement to media, Chairman of the Association Upul Rohana said such a request is being made over the present COVID-19 situation and that it is clear several sub-clusters are on the rise.
Noting that healthregulations have only allowed to hold religious observations at religious rites and not religious festivals, he urged the public from organising unnecessary, large gatherings.
