Justice Minister resigns to enter Presidential Race

July 29, Colombo (LNW): Minister Wijeyadasa Rajapakshe has announced his resignation from his roles overseeing Justice, Prison Affairs, and Constitutional Reforms, as he prepares to run in Sri Lanka’s upcoming Presidential Election.

In a media briefing today (29), Rajapakshe explained his decision to resign to focus on his presidential bid.

He noted that his resignation follows discussions with the President about the implications of two Cabinet members running for the presidency, despite representing different parties.

Rajapakshe officially declared his candidacy for the 2024 Presidential Election last week, promising to address key issues and drive development if elected.

He also expressed confidence in the National Election Commission’s impartiality and mentioned that he has garnered substantial support from the Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP).
