If the 19th Amendment to the Constitution is re-enacted, his party will be able to participate the formation of an interim government even under the current President Gotabhaya Rajapaksa, says Samagi Jana Balawegaya MP Harsha de Silva.
Q. What you are saying is that the people do not accept this government. But you do not want to accept this either. What should be done then?
“We are ready to accept, we did not say no. Didn’t the government create this crisis? We can do this, but if we are to do this we must have some power to do this. If the executive president keeps the power and tells us to do this, it’s a joke. ”
Q. That is, if the 19th Amendment is enacted if you are asked to take over the government under this President, will it be accepted?
“Yes. We have the ability to come forward in such a situation. If the 19th Amendment comes into force we can come to some agreement. But that agreement will lead to a short-term, interim government with a plan to abolish the executive presidency. ”
Dr. Harsha de Silva said this while participating in a political discussion on Neth FM.
