Date:

Member of Parliament D.V. Chanaka has been appointed as the Minister of State for Power and Energy.

Chanaka was sworn in as the Minister of State for Wildlife and Forest Resources Conservation yesterday and an hour later he had informed the President that he could not take over the relevant ministry. He had asked the President to give him another responsible ministerial position and he was hoping that he would get the position of Minister of State for Power and Energy.

Accordingly, President Ranil Wickramasinghe has arranged to give him the State Ministership that he was waiting for.

Yesterday Indika Anuruddha was also sworn in as the Minister of Power and Energy and accordingly two State Ministers have been appointed for the relevant ministry.
