June 03, Colombo (LNW): Cabinet Spokesman Dr. Nalinda Jayatissa has firmly denied speculation about any plans to replace Prime Minister Dr. Harini Amarasuriya or to reorganise the current Cabinet.

Speaking at briefing held at the Department of Government Information in Colombo this (03) afternoon, Dr. Jayatissa addressed swirling rumours that have gripped political circles and media outlets in recent days.

Dr. Jayatissa dismissed suggestions of an impending Cabinet reshuffle as baseless, asserting that no discussions or decisions have been made to alter the government’s leadership structure.

He accused certain groups, in collusion with sections of the media, of spreading misinformation to serve their own agendas, urging the public to disregard such reports.
