Another swearing in of a SLPP-led Cabinet today?

Date:

A new Cabinet of Ministers is due to be sworn in today (11) internal sources from the government claimed.

The new Cabinet is likely to become an all Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) Cabinet in the event that the Opposition had denied President Rajapaksa’s offer to join the Cabinet and the 11-party MP group is serving independently in Parliament.

Accordingly, the SLPP MPs who had previously served in the Cabinet are likely to be reshuffled into different portfolios, according to sources.

The ever growing anti-government protests throughout the country forced the Cabinet to step down except the Prime Minister on April 03. Later, four ministers including the Minister of Finance were sworn in, pending a full Cabinet.
