Ministry of Women and Child Affairs and Social Empowerment to be given to Pavithra or Diana?

Date:

Former Minister Pavithra Devi Wanniarachchi and former Minister of State Diana Gamage have been nominated for the newly gazetted Ministry of Women and Children’s and Social Empowerment, reports say.

Although Pavithra Wanniarachchi has been at the forefront of seniority, due to her failure in all the three Ministries of Health, Power and Transport in the past, as well as the general dislike of the ministers who have held cabinet posts in the past, Diana Gamage is more likely to be in charge of the Ministry of Women and Child Affairs and Social Empowerment.

On the contrary, it is said that Diana Gamage has been talked about in the ruling party as an MP who is interested in rebuilding the country’s economy, who speaks out and stands up for her views despite criticism and insults, as well as who is eager to work.

According to sources, Diana Gamage will most likely hold the ministry post.
