The launch of the National Manifesto ‘මුළු රටම හරි මගට’ took place yesterday (02). It was organized by 11 parties representing the government including the SLFP, the JNP and the Pivithuru Hela Urumaya.
Speaking at the event Minister Wimal Weerawansa stated that the country is facing a serious crisis. He alleges that the government leaders do not have a definite plan to overcome the crisis.
The Minister further stated that challenges cannot be overcome by acting with an arrogant mindset and a plan should be prepared for that.
Weerawansa points out that carpet roads built with huge loans from foreign countries are all over the country and while people are suffering from various problems, carpet roads are still being constructed and some of the roads that were carpeted are being carpeted again.
Minister Weerawansa says that despite the carpeted roads, the people do not have the fuel to travel on those and the government has failed to supply fuel to vehicles.
