Dialog donates Rs. 25 m for Ranaviru Retreat Centre

Dialog Telekom, paid tribute to the nation's war heroes by presenting a sum of Rs. 25 million to the Ministry of Defence in support of the Ranaviru Retreat Centre in Attidiya.

It was handed over at the proposed Ranaviru Retreat Centre in Attidiya which is under construction, under the aegis of the Ministry of Defence.

The presentation was made by Dialog Telekom Group Chief Executive, Dr. Hans Wijayasuriya, to Defence Secretary, Gotabhaya Rajapaksa.

The funds donated were drawn from Dialog's pledge to donate Rs. 100 per each 'Ranaviru Recharge Card' towards the welfare of war heroes.

The Ranaviru Retreat, a brainchild of Defence Secretary, Gotabhaya Rajapaksa, is an expansive centre for disabled armed forces personnel. The centre, which is still under construction, will provide state-of-the-art treatment facilities to assist the mental and physical empowerment of seriously disabled service personnel.

The Ranaviru Retreat will initially house 250 servicemen and women. Dialog's contribution will be utilised with other donations towards the completion of the complex.

Defence Secretary, Gotabhaya Rajapaksa, visited the site on Thursday and inspected the progress of work and gave recommendations for the ongoing initiatives. The Defence Secretary also thanked Dialog Telekom for its contribution made towards the development of the complex, and for the company's support towards the welfare of disabled service personnel.
