Date:

Ranil Wickremesinghe has given instructions to the concerned parties to speed up and regularize the fuel distribution all over the island.

The President gave these instructions during the discussion held at the Prime Minister’s Office this morning (23) on the fuel problem and its next steps.

Education Minister Susil Premajayant drew the President’s attention to the provision of necessary transportation facilities for school children when starting schools across the island from next Monday. Accordingly, the President instructed the Minister of Transport to provide an opportunity for buses and vans transporting school children to get fuel from all Langama depots across the island from 3.00 pm today.

According to the previous system, it was decided to release fuel for agricultural activities including fishing, tourism and fertilizer distribution as well as for public transport activities through the SLTB depot and at the tri-army bases all over the island.

The president also directed the police to expand the related raids and strictly enforce the law against the concerned individuals and groups.
