(UTV|COLOMBO) – Minister of Finance Mangala Samaraweera today (15) stated that there was no revision to the price of wheat flour as claimed by several media reports.
The price of flour cannot be increased without the consent of the Cabinet appointed Cost-of-Living Committee and the Consumer Affairs Authority. As usual fake news factory Derana is spreading lies. Any vendor selling above the mandated price will be dealt with severely.
