Indikada-Mookalana

"Ali-Wala", adjacent to the Indikada-mookalana (Forest Reserve) is a natural fresh water pool & a famouse bathing spot among travellers to the Wga area. Bmbara-dola (stream), of which Ali-wala is made out of, carries very clear water where one could easily see many fresh water fish species even at a distance.
As the place often is crowded most of the time, it also gets poluted fast.
Members of Haritha Diyatha conducted a cleaning campaign at Ali-wala in January this year. As a follwo-up to it, the group took measures to clean-up the debris collected since, and fix a board, pleadind the public not to POLUTE, but PROTECT the Environment.
