The ladies’ restroom at Colombo Fort Railway Station has been refurbished. A cleaner, upgraded space is now open for use with an entry fee of Rs. 50 per person.

@kushanf21 Not only taxes. More corruption too. Bigger the govt, more the corruption.

@numberslka If that’s the case, why did PUCSL approved power cuts? Are they doing their job properly?
