For people to travel to their homes for the coming Sinhala  and Tamil new Year the private bus operators union has promised to deploy 3000 buses between the dates of 8th to the 25th of April to enable those employed in Colombo to visit their homes.

However the bus fare would be 1 1/2 times the normal fare.This the private bus operators association had said as because the buses would have to come empty and to cover up for their loses.

It is also reported that the buses supplied would be normal buses and not even semi luxury buses.
