Establish government-owned pharmacies in every town.

Why this status
The State Pharmaceuticals Corporation has continued a government programme to expand Rajya Osusala branches: its 64th branch opened in Kiribathgoda in April 2025, and its 67th branch opened in Batticaloa in October 2025. This is strong evidence of active expansion of government-owned pharmacies, but the official outlet list does not establish a branch in every town.
