Former UPFA MP Bandula Gunawardane today said he was ready to face Finance Minister Ravi Karunanayake in court if the minister sued him over charging the government of privatizing state owned Litro Gas Lanka Ltd.

“Let him come to the courts. Also, he should have send a letter of demand to the media institution which exposed the government’s attempt to privatize the gas company instead of sending one to me,” he said.    

Mr. Gunawardane earlier charged the government had given approval to privatize Litro Gas Lanka Ltd by signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Shell Gas Lanka Ltd.

He said the government had signed the MoU to purchase gas at US$105 per tonne, contrary to international tender procedure.

However, refuting the claims, Minister Karunanayake yesterday said there was no attempt to privatize Litro Gas and said he would sue Mr. Gunawardane for making unfounded allegations. “I will send a letter of demands to him,” the minister said. (Lahiru Pothmulla)

    Shell Gas submit a quotation at US122-per MT tender. Tender was opened with the lowest price at US110-. Then Shell Gas makes an unsolicited proposal to Ravi at US105-.Ravi cancelled the tender results and grant the supply chain to Shell gas.Yahapalanya at its best. via DM iOS App

    This guy wants to debate everyone.. but forgets his assumption that a family could live comfortably with Rs.7,500 per month.

    If you are sure the media has published your correct.statement.then you must receive the demand notice.But if you say media is wrong then you must sue the mediaIt is common sense Mr.Education Minister.

    If you can show us how to live with Rs 2500 per month for a family of 4, then UPFA can win the election, so please debate this.

    Ravi is giving problems to UNP. He should be thrown out soon after elections. Otherwise, no future for this party.Siri
