Colombo (LNW): The prices of bakery products and restaurant food remain unchanged despite the price slash on LP gas approved on three subsequent occasions, lamented Chairman of the National Movement to Protect Consumer Rights Ranjith Withanage, speaking to media today (04).

Although the government has slashed the LP gas price to a value below Rs. 3,000 from a value above Rs. 6,000, the benefit has not been conveyed to the consumers by the restaurant and bakery owners, he said.

In the backdrop, the prices of bakery and restaurant products remain the same, Withanage noted, urging the government to pay immediate attention to the situation.
