MR’s attempt to measure Majority in Parliament reveals less than 113 signatures

Date:

Prime Minister has reportedly launched a programme to measure the 113-majority in Parliament by collecting signatures of MPs favouring the Ruling Party.

The programme was undertaken at the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) Headquarters in Nelum Mawatha, Baththaramulla since yesterday (24) morning.

However, he has managed to collect less than 113 signatures, sources said.

A previous meeting attended by the Ruling Party MPs to unanimously approve a motion to support Mahinda Rajapaksa managed to collect only 88 MPs.
