The Lanka Private Bus Owners’ Association says the annual bus fare revision should take effect tomorrow (01) under established policy.
Chairman Gemunu Wijeratne stated that the National Transport Commission has already been informed of the required adjustments, but accused authorities of failing to hold discussions with bus associations.
He warned that if the expected fare hike is not implemented, the association will resort to legal action.
Responding to inquiries, a spokesperson for the National Transport Commission confirmed that the proposal for the annual fare revision has been submitted to the Cabinet.
The Commission said the revision will be implemented once Cabinet approval is granted. (Newswire)
