The Chairman of the COPE Committee Prof. Charitha Herath said that many issues have transpired due to the lack of standards in the process of digitizing cinemas.

The Hajj festival is a spiritual celebration that displays the spirit of mutual understanding, compassion and exchange of fond greetings among the Islam
devotees the world over. I believe this is also a significant period in which the Muslim community bestows their traditions upon the future generation.

The Muslims of Sri Lanka, together with fellow Muslim brothers in the whole world celebrate the Haj Festival today. The Haj pilgrimage is performed in the month of Dhul Haj which is the final month of Islamic calendar. It marks the sacrifice and devotion of the Muslims in the path of serving the Almighty Allah who is the creator of the mankind .
