The Joint Opposition today handed over the second no-confidence motion signed by 37 Parliamentarians against Finance Minister Ravi Karunanayake.

Joint Opposition MP Dinesh Gunawardane told journalists that the motion was handed over to Speaker Karu Jayasuriya.

“Parliament has lost faith in Minister Karunanayake as he had been misleading the MPs by making various statements," Mr. Gunawardane said while highlighting that there were numerous charges against the minister.

He also said a no confidence motion against Minister of Megalopolis Patali Champika Ranawaka whose vehicle had allegedly knocked a youth down in Welikada recently injuring him seriously, would be handed over soon. (Yohan Perera)

    "PETER PRINCIPLE" promotion of a competent Accountant to an incompetent Finance Minister

    I support the motion. I recommend Dr. Harsha Silva to be finance minister.

    What about increasing all government servants salaries by 10 000 lkr which further increases the problem. Adding insult to injury.

    Wele Vidane Friday, 25 March 2016 01:11 PM

    Why against him, he is just a minister.

    Having no confidence motions against you one after the other itself is a black mark.

    Onlooker Friday, 25 March 2016 10:22 AM

    He is not doing anything rather than robbing to have faith in him.

    He needs to bow and leave to another portfolio. Even the hardcore UNPers have lost faith in his capacity carry the task.

    Top Cat Friday, 25 March 2016 08:10 AM

    This man is not suitable to hold any ministerial post, leave aside Finance. The country needs a Finance minister who has in-depth knowledge of economics. There are many in the UNP who can hold this post and do a better job.

    Ravi should talk more over the media, explaining the present economic crisis is due to massive interest payments on loans taken by last regime and also the world economic slow down

    Who did this new course on filing No Confidence motions for these guys? Surely these guys must have totally forgotten about it over the last so many years!
