In assigning subjects and responsibilities to the Ministers, the President gazetted the State Banks under Finance Minister Mangala Samaraweera. However, Mr. Kiriella, who held them previously, protested the move. He also said it was a revengeful act by the President.
The President told the Cabinet yesterday that he did not intend to take revenge from anyone in this case. (Kelum Bandara)
