Gangasiripura is known as Gampola, a historical city, and an ancient kingdom of Sri Lanka, which was ruled by several Sinhala kings.

In this famous city there have been prominent scholars, politicians and philanthropists, who served for the betterment of Gampola from 19th century. Among those are Sir T. B. Panabokke Adigar, Ayr. Dr. W. K. Jinadasa and Sir R. S. S. Gunawardana M.P. for Gampola.

I want to write a biography about leading figures under the title of "Gampola Opakala Udara Jeewitha" for the benefit of the future generation. So I like to get more details of above mentioned prominent figures from The Island readers.
