If Mahinda had become President in 2015, there will be no electricity crisis today! – Semasinghe

Date:

Minister of State Shehan Semasinghe states that we have to face a huge power crisis today due to the wrong decision taken by the people in the 2015 Presidential Election. The Minister of State states that if Mahinda Rajapaksa is re-elected as the President then, power plants will be established to meet the future demand for electricity.

However, Semasinghe states that the Yahapalanaya government that came to power in the 2015 presidential election did not take steps to establish the required power plants considering the future demand for electricity.

The Minister further stated that during the Mahinda Rajapaksa regime measures were taken to meet the demand for electricity by setting up new power plants but since 2015 that program has been completely inactive.
