President Gotabaya Rajapaksa yesterday turned down a plea by villagers to allocate three kilometres of forest cover to build a new road in Deraniyagala, officials said.
“I cannot agree to it without consulting environmental experts”, he said during an interaction with villagers in the area on Saturday.
