163 bus was not been running today. Buses bearing Nos. 119, 259, 163, 168 and 176 were not seen plying this morning which buses incidentally ply close to his glass business (Sanduni Glass) and also Maharagama where his house is situated. 

An attempt by the media to contact Mr. Gemunu Wijeyratna on a number of occasions to find his ideas in this connection failed because he had disconnected the telephone. An effort to find information by a Rupavahini channel was made by approaching him at his home on which occasion he had said that he is not in a position to make any comments on that topic. As such, it is seen that he now follows a silent attitude as the Chairman of Private Bus Owner's Association.
