The Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP) has decided to reject a request made by the President during a discussion between the President and the SLFP Parliamentary Group yesterday (05).
The President has said that since the Sri Lanka Freedom Party should be in the cabinet, they should take over the ministry again.
However, they have stated that this is not possible at the moment and that they will support any process which will bring about the abolition of the 20th Amendment to the Constitution,and the executive presidency.
At present 42 ruling party MPs are independent.
