SLPP has strongly objected to Minister of State Vidura Wickremanayake and Member of Parliament Premnath C. Dolawatta who participated in a meeting organized by the 11-party group including Maithri-Wimal-Gammanpila on the 3rd. The group of government backbenchers has also decided to remove Dolawatta from their group.
Meanwhile, it is reported that a disciplinary inquiry is being prepared against the Minister of State and the Member of Parliament. The final decision in this regard will be taken at today’s meeting of the SLPP, says its secretary, MP Sagara Kariyawasam. The Secretary further states that if the party decides to take disciplinary action against them, a disciplinary inquiry will be held.
He states that he accepts the decision taken by President Gotabhaya Rajapaksa to remove Wimal Weerawansa and Udaya Gammanpila from their ministerial posts as a correct decision.
