¶ 01 Thank you, Hon. Minister. Please expedite track rehabilitation and signaling to restart Sri Devi and Uttara Devi fully. Also, Rajarata Rejini now stops at Anuradhapura; earlier it reached Vavuniya even during the war. Given facilities at Vavuniya, please extend it back to Vavuniya, as many passengers face difficulties.
