SLBC double cabs in DG’s personal use

 

Wednesday, 15 October 2014 

The director general of the Sri Lanka Broadcasting Corporation is using two of the three Micro double cabs the institution has acquired for the personal use of his family, reports say.

Each worth millions of rupees, one of these cabs is being used by the wife of the DG.

Recently, the DG’s wife, together with her mother and children, had been using the double cab for a personal journey, when it met with an accident and was condemned as not usable.

SLBC employees are surprised the subject minister and the chairman are not taking any action against one of the top officials of the state-owned institution.

They are demanding that action be taken against the DG who continues to be in the SLBC with service extensions although he has passed the retirement age.
