The warning comes after heavy rainfall was recorded in the catchment areas of Ravana Falls, causing a significant increase in water inflows to the reservoir and surrounding waterways.
In response to the potential flood risk, the Deputy Director of the Disaster Management Department in Monaragala has taken steps to inform and alert approximately 40 families residing in the affected area.
Authorities have advised residents living in low-lying areas near the Kirindi Oya to remain vigilant and follow safety instructions issued by disaster management officials. Monitoring of water levels and weather conditions is continuing, with further updates expected as the situation develops.
