The Mahanayake of the Malwathu Chapter, Venerable Thibbotuwawe Sri Sumangala Thera today requested President Maithripala Sirisena to convene Parliament and find a solution to end the current political instability in the country.

In a letter, the Thera said he hoped that the President and the Parliament would be able to come up with solutions which are constitutional and ethical.

“Immediate measures need to be taken to prevent the further collapse of the country,” the prelate said in the letter. (Nadeeka Daya Bandara)

Excellent advice coming from the Highest Buddhist Order to save the country from mayhem and chaos crated by mad politicians.

This prelate is an ardent UNP supporter. Prelates should be independent and objective.

Ingram, do you know who is your father? I doubt even your mother knows.

Sirisena created crisis with gazette notices. He can revoke the notices and solve the crisis.

Ram Friday, 16 November 2018 04:32 PM

Mahanayaka thumani, You endorsed as right President's action in appointing Mahinda as PM. At that time you did now ask President to summon Parliament. What is the reason for the sudden change ?

666 Friday, 16 November 2018 06:52 PM

The Ven, Mahanayaka did not endorse it. He kept away from all that. Check your facts again.

NASRUDIN Saturday, 17 November 2018 10:15 PM
