View(s):

The 17th annual general meeting and get-together of the Irrigation Department’s Ex-Officers’ Association will be held on Sunday September 22 at Randiya Hotel, Koralawella, Moratuwa from 10 am onwards.

At the AGM, the 400-member association will award four scholarships.  The association in its 8th AGM initiated its first scholarship programme. In terms of the scheme, a deserving child of the Irrigation Fraternity is awarded the scholarship if he or she gains entry to an engineering faculty. The scholarship is awarded in honour of former Irrigation Department director, the late Eng. A.J.P. Ponrajah.

Subsequently, two more scholarship programmes were established in 2016 and 2018. They were named after past directors, the late Eng. R.S. Cooke and the late Eng. A.E.C. de. S. Gunasekara. So far, the association has awarded nine scholarships under the three scholarship programmes.
