Galle row returns
Sri Lanka's tsunami-hit cricket stadium at Galle was once again embroiled in a heritage row Sunday as it prepared to host the third and final Test against England next week.
The new pavilion at the picturesque Galle International Stadium must be demolished after the match which begins on December 18, a press report quoted Urban Development Minister Dinesh Gunawardena as saying.
"I got cabinet approval to demolish the building once the Test match is over," the minister told the Colombo-based Sunday Times newspaper, as its new construction was not in line with heritage guidelines.
