Bus fares may soar if diesel subsidy not given: Anjana Priyanjith

Date:

The government should be providing a special fuel subsidy for buses in the backdrop where Lanka IOC has surged the price of diesel by Rs. 15 per litre, said Chief Secretary of the All Ceylon Private Bus Companies’ Federation Anjana Priyanjith, speaking to media yesterday (26).

“The government should immediately be providing a special subsidy for buses. There is no other option but to revise the bus fares. We urge the government provide a diesel subsidy without letting the surging of the bus fares happen,” he said.
