September 24, Colombo (LNW): National People’s Power (NPP) MP Vijitha Herath has confirmed that the newly appointed Cabinet of Ministers is set to be sworn in today (24).

This marks a significant step in the early days of President Anura Kumara Dissanayake’s administration, signalling the formation of his government’s core leadership team.

Herath further revealed that discussions regarding the potential dissolution of Parliament are also on the agenda.

He noted that the matter would be addressed in a meeting with President Dissanayake later in the day.

The timing of these discussions indicates the administration’s intention to rapidly move forward with plans that could lead to a fresh parliamentary election.

The NPP’s focus on political and institutional reform has been a central theme of its governance agenda.

Dissolving Parliament and calling for fresh elections could serve as a way to consolidate power and align legislative support with the new executive leadership, ensuring smoother progress in implementing its policy goals.
