A bus that transported supporters to Presidential Candidate Sajith Premadasa’s rally at the Galle Face Green has caused a heated situation near a toll gate of the expressway.

New Democratic Front (NDF) presidential candidate Sajith Premadasa’s maiden rally was held at the Galle Face Greens at 2 pm today (10).

Reportedly, the bus carrying the supporters had refused to pay the toll charges levied at the expressway toll gates.

This caused a tense situation between the supporters and the officials at the toll gate.
