Minister Vasudeva Nanayakkara has stated that the government has decided to seek the assistance of the International Monetary Fund and that he will no longer be able to work with the government.
The Minister said that the decision to seek the assistance of the International Monetary Fund would be subject to their terms.
Accordingly, the welfare of the country will be curtailed and the ownership of state institutions will be betrayed by the private sector and expenditure on services such as health and education will be limited, said Vasudeva Nanayakkara.
The Minister said that he could not stay in the government due to this situation and would inform his decision in the future.
