Nameboards in Sinhala and Tamil
by S.M. Wijayaratne -Kurunegala Corr.
The National Languages Commission has informed all heads of
government departments in the Kurunegala district to display the name
boards of their institutions in Sinhala and Tamil languages.
Some name boards are now displayed only in Sinhala language, it is
reported. All hospitals, police stations, Divisional Secretariats,
Education and Pensions Department offices, should have bilingual name
boards.
This decision will be enforced following the ‘Deyata Kirula – 2014’
National Development Exhibition at Kuliyapitiya an official of the
Kurunegala District Secretariat said.
