On December 18, 2023, the Cupboard of Ministers gave the nod to import eggs from India till April 30, 2024.

Accordingly, Sri Lanka has so far imported as many as 18 million eggs from its neighbor, and 42 million extra eggs are but to be introduced in.

For this function, the Division of Animal Manufacturing and Well being has already obtained the proposed charges from the advisable Indian corporations.
