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.
