The Sri Lankan government will present its first draft of proposed solutions to New Delhi in June, Asiantribune quoted government sources as saying.

The proposals will be presented by President Mahinda Rajapakse to Indian Premier Dr. Manmohan Singh as well as the President of India Pratibha Patil in June during President Rajapakse's official visit to New Delhi.

President Mahinda Rajapakse is scheduled to visit India for official discussions on an invitation by Indian Premier Dr. Manmohan Singh.

Among key suggestions in Sri Lanka's draft proposals to New Delhi are the implementation of the 13th Amendment and increase of Provincial Council powers, increasing minority involvement through a newly created 'Senate Chamber' and new measures to ensure equality among all Sri Lankans, Asiantribune reported.
