Sri Lanka Insurance Life and Sri Lanka Insurance General, in collaboration with the National Disaster Relief Services Centre (NDRSC), have provided essential assistance to 1,000 families impacted by the recent ‘Ditwah’ cyclone. The relief effort was conducted in two phases on 30th November and 2nd December 2025, underscoring the company’s ongoing commitment to supporting communities during challenging times.
Dry ration packs were distributed through the NDRSC to the Maharagama Urban Council and the Divulapitiya Pradeshiya Sabha, ensuring that aid reached the most affected households promptly and efficiently. The distribution programmes were organized with the involvement of local authorities alongside the management teams from SLIC Life and SLIC General, further strengthening the company’s partnership with the communities it serves.
Chairman of Sri Lanka Insurance, Mr. Nusith Kumaaratunga, commented on the initiative, stating, “Sri Lanka Insurance has always placed community wellbeing at the heart of its purpose. In difficult times such as these, it is our responsibility to stand with the families who have been affected and offer meaningful support. This relief effort reflects our ongoing commitment to uplift communities and reinforces our role as a trusted national insurer focused on protection, care, and compassion.”
In addition to the relief programme, Sri Lanka Insurance has extended operating hours at selected SLIC General branches in the affected areas to ensure uninterrupted service. Claims, customer care teams, and branch staff are working beyond regular hours to provide timely assistance to policyholders impacted by the severe weather conditions.
Sri Lanka Insurance remains dedicated to safeguarding its customers and supporting communities nationwide, reaffirming its longstanding promise of protection, stability, and service excellence.
