President says he was elected to make bigger difference in the country

President Gotabaya Rajapaksa, who inspected a farm that has adopted entirely organic cultivation methods today (October 23), said he was elected to make a bigger difference in the country.

“Even the past governments have attempted to do this [switch to organic farming] and this is a difficult task,” he added.

Further, President Rajapaksa said he believes that he was not elected just to look into the prices of essential items but to make a bigger difference in this country.

Following a news item telecast on Ada Derana main bulletin at 6.55 p.m., the head of the state engaged in an inspection visit at a farm in Udubeddawa area which produces 100% organic fertilizer and successfully cultivates vegetables and fruits.

He was joined by Agriculture Minister Mahindananda Aluthgamage and several other officials.
