President Maithripala Sirisena inaugurated the filling of water to the Moragahakanda reservoir a short while ago on Wednesday morning, Ada Derana reporter said.


The foundation stone for this Moragahakanda project, the biggest multi-functional irrigation project, was laid by President Sirisena in 2007 when he was the Minister of Agricultural Development and Agrarian Services Development.


The President also enshrined treasures at the Moragahakanda Reservoir Project in July, 2016.


The construction work on the project is expected to be completed by 2018, while the project is completely handled by local engineers, the financial assistance is being provided through the Government.
