No presidential punch at Pallai
View(s):
A lighter side of the much publicised reopening of the new Jaffna railway station was this scene. Pallai railway policeman Sumith was insisting that the tickets of President Mahinda Rajapaksa and his entourage should be punched as others do before they boarded the train to Jaffna. But a Presidential security officer is seen blocking him. Sumith said the ticket is invalid for travel unless punched.
