Had state power been misused, ministries should not be vested in: Trade Minister

Date:

Trade Minister Bandula Gunawardena speaking to media in Kandy yesterday (02) emphasised that he believes that a reshuffle should be taking place not only in the Cabinet, but also in the state-run bodies and their positions.

“Had I been failed to serve the duty I was entrusted with, my Ministerial portfolio must be changed. Had the state power been misused, ministries should not be vested in. I believe that a reshuffle should be taking place not only in the Cabinet, but also in the state-run bodies,” Gunawardena said.

The Trade Minister added: “His Excellence the President has the full power to change the Board of Ministers. None can influence it. We believe that the President may take that decision wisely.”
