Three Wheel Operator Associations vehemently opposed the government’s decision to impose a ban on individuals below the age of 35 years, operating three-wheelers.

They pointed out that this decision by the government will impact the industry negatively.

Sudil Jayaruk, the Chairman of the All Island Three Wheel Drivers’ and Owners’ Association stated that if this ban is imposed they would resort to a trade union action.
