All-island strike: Train operations cease from tonight

Date:

Nearly 1000 trade unions in the country will be joining the all-island one day token strike to be held tomorrow (28) and the railway operations will also cease from midnight today (27) in support, said the Railway Trade Union Alliance speaking to media this afternoon.

“Many Railway Department bodies including the railway tracks, industrial units, track divisions as well as railway offices and administration offices are joining the strike. These railway workers have contributed to the success of the one-day token strike from midnight today to midnight tomorrow (28). Therefore, we have to say that the train service will not be operational tomorrow” said Convener of the Railway Trade Union Alliance S.P. Withanage.
