Today’s Parliament sitting very critical. Heavy Police guard around premises

Date:

Parliament is set to convene today (04) and the sitting would be very critical with regard to the country’s current political crisis, sources claimed.

This is mainly due to the no-confidence motion against the government handed over to the Speaker by the Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) and Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa’s reportedly confirmed announcement of his resignation due on being made.

Should the Prime Minister announce his resignation the entire Cabinet will automatically be revoked, leaving a non-existent government in the Chambers.

Meanwhile, heavy Police guard has been deployed around the Parliament premises since yesterday’s evening. Accordingly, Parliament is being heavily guarded with permanent road blocks made of iron pipes.
