Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe will hold decisive talks with the Tamil Progressive Alliance in a bid to resolve the wages crisis of plantation workers, Minister P. Digambaram said.

Addressing a public rally yesterday, the Minister said that the collective agreement which was signed pertaining to the wage hike has deceived the people.

He explained that incentives worth Rs 140 which were previously given to estate workers have been removed in the latest wages revision.
