That's a relief. I expected an increase of Rs 1145.00.

Ok. From tomorrow the all Ceylon canteens will increase yea cup by 5/- and lunch packet by 10/- (the least) and the ‘common’ man will be commenting about calling for elections or ministers to resign! Not knowing the capacity of a gas cylinder in terms of cups of tea or lunch packets. Some ‘top notch’ canteens will increase food packets by 145/-
