January 12, Colombo (LNW): In a significant development, the Select Committee of Parliament Investigating Causes for Financial Bankruptcy declared by the Government has decided to summon Dr. Nandalal Weerasinghe, the Governor of the Central Bank of Sri Lanka. Committee Chairman MP Sagara Kariyawasam confirmed that Dr. Weerasinghe has been called to appear before the committee in the upcoming week.
This move follows the recent testimony of Mahinda Siriwardana, the Secretary to the Ministry of Finance, who appeared before the committee last week. The committee’s mandate is to thoroughly investigate and understand the factors contributing to the financial challenges declared by the government.
The summons to Dr. Weerasinghe underscores the parliamentary committee’s commitment to a comprehensive inquiry into the financial circumstances leading to the government’s declaration of financial bankruptcy.
