Economic Crisis in Sri Lanka-The price of fish has skyrocketed due to the increase in kerosene price

Fish traders claim that the price of fish will go up a lot with the increase in the price of kerosene.

They point out that since fishing boats mostly use kerosene as fuel, after the increase of 253 rupees per liter, the same cost will also be added to the fish.

Peliyagoda fish traders claim that the price of fish can exceed the limit of 5,000 rupees per kilo.

Meanwhile, Minister of Power and Energy Mr Kanchana Wijesekera states that he hopes to provide price relief to the affected parties due to the increase in the price of kerosene.
