NDTV'S Sreeja MS reports from Galle Face in Colombo, Sri Lanka, the epicentre of violent clash between the anti-government and pro-protesters. Those who were injured in the clash are back for more protests. The island-nation that is under emergency and curfew till Thursday 7 am is reverberating with slogans of resignation of President Gotabaya Rajapaksa. Amid the ongoing economic crisis, there is also a crisis in the administration of the country after Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa stood down. Tax-paying citizens continue to wait in long serpentine queues for essentials to survive.
