Sri Lanka Police announced that the general public can provide any information regarding environmental destruction via the hotline numbers ‘1997’ and ‘1981’.
Police stated that steps have been taken to inform people regarding the matter, as the information provided by the general public plays a major role in operations carried out in relation to environmental destruction.
Illegal mining activities, environmental damage caused by factories, and sound pollution have had a severe impact on the environment and wild animals.
Accordingly, the hotline numbers ‘1997’ of the Police Special Bureau and ‘1981’ of the Central Environment Authority (CEA) have been introduced to receive information and complaints regarding such environmental damages caused by people, the police said.
