The program initiated by the Sri Lankan president to provide 100,000 government jobs to the poorest families in all regions will commence from Wednesday, 02 September, the President’s Media Division said.

The objective of the program aimed at eradicating poverty is to empower those who live in absolute poverty with no formal education and skills through the Multi-Purpose Development Task Force established by the government.

Job recipients giving cash or any kind of bribe to any party or all kinds of canvassing will be a disqualification, the President’s office stressed.
