    Awshad Rahim Monday, 25 April 2011 08:43 AM

    This is a good move,but first they have to get their Visas.
    Getting Indian Visa in a hurry by Internet application and all the procedures after will see only the Tomb of Sai Baba.
    Dont see why people need to Travel to India with this Messy Visa system?

    Jabos Monday, 25 April 2011 07:00 AM

    Oh - this indeed is a good deed immaterial of the profits they would earn. We need to respect those devotees who are fellow Sri Lankans - brothers and sisters of ours who believe him and wish to attend the funeral.
