Colombo remains quiet after New Year holidays

Many streets and town areas in Colombo appeared less crowded today, as people have not yet returned to the city after the New Year celebrations. The Daily Mirror camera captured that most wholesale and retail shops in Colombo and Pettah remained closed. There was also noticeably less traffic on the roads, and fewer people were seen at train stations and bus terminals. Pix by Kithsiri de Mel
