Cannabis in Sri Lanka
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cannabis in Sri Lanka is illegal, though it is commonly used in Ayurvedic traditional medicines.[1]
Reform[edit]
In 2008, the Minister for Indigenous Medicine sought limited legalization of cannabis for medical purposes. The new officeholder in 2013 likewise proposed to amend the Ayurveda Act to recognize the value of cannabis.[2]
