President Anura Kumara Dissanayake assured that the government has implemented measures to ensure that there will be no shortage of rice during the upcoming ‘Maha’ cultivation season. 

Addressing a public gathering in Horana, the President emphasized the importance of maintaining rice reserves to stabilize food security.
