Accordingly, all services linked to the supply of electricity, the supply or distribution of petroleum and sub products, fuel and all services, work, or labour, of any description whatsoever, necessary or required to be done in connection with the maintenance and reception, care, feeding, and treatment, of patients in hospitals, nursing homes, dispensaries, and other similar institutions were included in the notification under the essential category.

A disgrace for the crooks of the Rajapaksa government under the gentleman turned arsehole Ranil, who can only maintain the necessary services with emergency decrees. This eliminates the unions' fundamental and democratic right to strike. Then rather no fuel than under these dictatorial circumstances. It's a drama and a shame that the arsehole Ranil can only rule the country with emergency decrees. But that won't stop the people from sending him, his crokked government and criminal parliament to hell.
