Will the army be called to the railway station? 

Due to the violent incidents that occurred with the train strike, station masters have withdrawn from their work at several stations. President of the Railway Station Master’s Association Sumedha Somaratne said that they have requested to call the army to protect the stations. It is reported that only 25 journeys have been run. Also, due to the violent incidents that occurred at Colombo Fort, Ragama, Kollupitiya and Panadura stations, the station masters withdrew from ticket issuing activities at those stations. The Union of Regulators started a professional action by leaving their services from midnight last night due to the lack of transport facilities and lack of fuel for their private vehicles to come to work. The railway deputy said that 4 were running General Manager Gamini Senaviratne said. However, due to the insufficient number of train times, the passengers were in a lot of trouble. Meanwhile, the representatives of their union have decided to leave the stations due to the unrest at the stations. At a time when a strike was in effect, even today, due to the lack of fuel, there were not enough bus runs. Private bus owners alleged that they are not getting enough fuel from Ceylon Transport Board depots.
