and Highways says that all depot managers have been given one month to bring all depots of the Sri Lanka Transport Board to a profitable state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Commenting on this, Deputy Minister of Transport Dr. Prasanna Gunasena states that a decision will be taken in the future regarding depot managers who do not do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are one hundred and seven SLTB bus depots operating across the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Ministry says that only 60 depots are profitable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Meanwhile, the Deputy Media said that after the new government came to power, nearly twenty SLTB depot managers were removed and other people were appointed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Deputy Minister further said that the depot managers were given a long time to bring the SLTB depots to a profitable state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u0da9\u0dd2\u0db4\u0ddd \u0dbd\u0ddc\u0d9a\u0dca\u0d9a\u0db1\u0dca\u0da7 \u0dbb\u0dad\u0dd4 \u0d91\u0dc5\u0dd2\u0dba\u0d9a\u0dca \u2013
