Manning Market in dire straits...

The Manning Market today wore a deserted look as there was a low supply of vegetables due to a strike action by farmers in the Nuwara-Eliya district. Hence, the Market witnessed a poor turnout of customers. Nowadays, the prices of vegetables and other essential items are going way beyond the common man's reach. Pix Nimalsiri Edirisinghe
