Other notable attendees included Niroshan Bandara, the HR Manager of the Nawagattegama branch, Janitha Mendis, the Digital and New Media Manager of News First, Assistant Superintendent of Police Saman Priyantha, Principal Kithsiri Wijerathna of Takshila Primary School, and Gammadda General Secretary Prasanna Athukorala.
