January 23, Colombo (LNW): Trade unionist representing Ceylon Electricity Board (CEB) employees, Ranjan Jayalal, is set to be summoned before Parliament over allegations of disseminating false information, Minister of Power and Energy Kanchana Wijesekara said.
Wijesekera has proposed the summoning of Ranjan Jayalal, accusing him of spreading inaccurate claims.
