Postal Strike In Sri Lanka

A banner in Sinhala is displayed during a strike as post offices remain closed in Colombo, Sri Lanka, on August 21, 2025. In opposition to a new biometric fingerprint attendance system, postal trade unions reject new attendance rules and vow to continue the strike until their demands are met. The strike commences on August 17 and continues for several days, with postal trade unions holding strong on their 19 key demands. These demands include the payment of overtime and allowances.
