Train services are disrupted today (April 28) as the employees from several railway trade unions have not reported to work, says the General Manager of Sri Lanka Railways.
A host of trade unions representing all state, semi-government and private sectors resorted to an island-wide strike for 24 hours today (April 28), to express their dissatisfaction towards the government.
Many sectors in the country including plantation, agriculture, electricity, fisheries, banks, health, ports, economic centres, teachers and principals will join the trade union action.
According to reports, approximately 1,000 trade unions have pledged support for the strike action.
