A heated situation has occurred in the parliament today.
Although a special debate is scheduled to be held today and tomorrow on the current crisis in the country, it has been more than an hour and a half since Parliament convened, but it has not yet been able to begin a proper debate.
Apart from the current crisis in the country, special attention was paid to the person who was wearing a helmet and got into Leader of the Jathika Jana Balawegaya Anura Dissanayake’s Cab when it came out of Parliament yesterday.
Although Vijitha Herath stated in Parliament today that he was a member of the JVP who was under the protection of his leader, the ruling party members strongly requested the Speaker to conduct an investigation into that person and ensure the security of other Ministers and MPs.
Opposition members were chanting slogans at the parliament and the Speaker adjourned the House.
