The Sri Lanka Navy granted an interest free loan worth Rs. 500,000 each, to 10 differently abled sailors who retired from service due to injuries sustained in action.
Accordingly the sailors received their cheques from the Commander of the Navy, Vice Admiral Ravindra Wijegunaratne at the Naval Headquarters yesterday (5).
Under a visionary concept of the Commander of the Navy, the Sri Lanka Navy initiated this magnanimous cause of granting interest free loans worth Rs. 500,000 for the senior sailors in the Navy.
To coincide with that initiative, this monetary assistance was offered to honour the noble service of the naval personnel who made great sacrifices in defence of the motherland.
