Sri Lanka’s 62nd Independence Day celebration

Sri Lanka’s 62nd Independence Day celebration will be held at the Maha Maluwa of the Sri Dalada Maligawa in Kandy on February 4 under the patronage of President Mahinda Rajapaksa.

This year’s celebrations will be held in a grandiose manner since it is the first independence commemoration held in a unified country after liberating it from 30 years of terrorism.

Concurrent to the Independence celebrations an all night pirith ceremony will be held at Independence Square, Colombo on February 2 followed by a Sanghika dana at the Hunupitiya Gangaramaya on February 3 forenoon.

Celebrations on February 4 will begin with all religious ceremonies at the Sri Dalada Maligawa, Kandy, Selva Vinayagar Kovil, Kandy, Meeramakkam Mosque St. Anthony’s Church and St. Paul’s Cathedral.
