Sri Lanka, Sept. 14 -- Sri Lanka Navy divers provided assistance to repair a broken dam gate at the Kottukachchiya tank in Anamaduwa on September 11.

The Navy was requested to provide diving assistance by the Puttalam Irrigation Department and the Disaster Management Centre after they discovered that the dam gate was inactive.

A diving team from the North Western Naval Command promptly responded to the request.

The divers worked to clear sand, mud, and rocks that were obstructing the gate and successfully restored its function.
