Faction in SJB keen on backing all-party government?

A group of MPs in the Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) are keen on backing an all-party government if one is to be ever formed in the future, sources said.

Some within the party are of the view that they should join the all-party government by accepting ministerial posts in it, but the opinion of the majority including Leader of the Opposition Sajith Premadasa is that the government should be supported only via an parliamentary committee system.

There is proposition from the side of the government that the post of Investment Promotion Minister should be given to a key player among those who are keen on joining the all-party government, but no final decision has been reached in this regard to date, according to sources.
