Public Expresses Concerns Over Fuel Price Increase

Members of the public have expressed concerns over the recent increase in fuel prices, saying that the rising cost of fuel has become a financial burden.

However, some people pointed out that the latest price increase was relatively small and noted that successive governments had also raised fuel prices during their respective terms.

They also expressed hope that the President would introduce relief measures for the public as soon as possible.

Meanwhile, three-wheeler operators said the increase in fuel prices could force them to raise their fares to cover the additional operating costs.
