Mr Thasun also lamented over inadequate access to clean water in the area.
According to him, the situation has compelled a lot of people to drink water with animals as others travel a long distance to look for water, a situation he describes as very worrying.
He says even though the Municipal has drilled some boreholes for some communities, some are still facing challenges due to insufficient budget.
