There were sevaral fires like this in the recent past, is anyone found guilty? Anyway what I heard in news is that mass block of Pines trees are fully burnt from the fire. So now forest officials have the chance plant more suitable trees.

well what a bell 212 can do to extinguish fire..? in Mihintale incident they used an MI-17 where it can carry more than twice a payload than a ball 212 carries. cost cutting for everything..
