Restore telephone towers that were down due to bad weather

A team of officers from Ballekattuwa and Ella Police is climbing Namunukula Mountain from Ballekattuwa with a generator and diesel to restore power to telephone towers that have been down due to a power outage.

Telephone communication has become essential for teams working to rescue victims in mountainous areas, and once this effort is successful, you too will have the convenience of contacting your loved ones living around the Badulla area via telephone lines.
