Bus fares in Sri Lanka have been increased by 12.19%, with the minimum fare rising from Rs. 27 to Rs. 30. Multiple government sources and news outlets reported on this transportation pricing update.

Only in Sri Lanka can a 12% bus fare hike feel like a math exam and a comedy sketch had a baby. Three extra rupees and suddenly everyone's doing economic gymnastics like it's an Olympic sport!
