It is reported that the Minister of Finance Basil Rajapaksa who left for the United States on a private visit will return to Sri Lanka this morning (01).
Sources say that he is returing to the country concluding his visit to the US early to plan the upcoming cabinet reshuffle.
It is reported that the cabinet reshuffle for the new year will take place on January 14-15.
However, as Lanka News Web has previously reported, the cabinet reshuffle will inevitably take place before the new parliament convenes on January 18.
