The Indian High Commissioner to Sri Lanka Santosh Jha paid respects to Most Venerable Tibbatuwawe Sri Siddhartha Sumangala Mahanayake Thera of the Malwatte Chapter and Most Venerable Warakagoda Sri Gnanarathana Mahanayake Thera of the Asgiriya Chapter in Kandy during a recent visit to Kandy.
He gifted a range of essential items to the Malwatte and Asgiriya Maha Pirivenas. These included computers, tables, chairs, almirahs, beds and study material. The gesture aims to help enrich the academic and spiritual pursuits of the venerable Theras and young resident monks at both the institutions.
The Mahanayake of Malwatta Venerable Tibbatuwawe Sumangala Thera presented an emerald Buddha statue to the High Commissioner Jha as a token of appreciation.
High Commissioner Jha also met Diyawadana Nilame Nilanga Dela Bandara and discussed the numerous initiatives being undertaken by the Government of India for the promotion of Buddhist ties with Sri Lanka, including the proposed exposition of Sacred Relics of Lord Buddha from Devnimori, Gujarat, in Sri Lanka.
