Oppositions Leader Sajith Premadasa today informed Parliament that the Executive Presidency should be abolished this week, if possible.

“There should be no voice in Parliament, apart from the voice heard from the streets. The people want a change in government and that the Parliament must understand it," he informed Parliament.

He said the proposal to abolish the Executive Presidency must be brought to Parliament this week.

The Opposition Leader said that they will not accept any ministerial position, and power will only be obtained with the blessings of the people.

"SJB will not come to take portfolios. Do not make deals with MPs to gather your 113. That will not serve any purpose," he said.(DSB and YP)

Why don't you leaders share the plans of action - short, medium and long term that can be implemented to revive the country? Otherwise you are just saying things that will please the people but will not solve the problems.

As an immediate step, if you all could abolish Executive Presidency that will be a great achievement. But we also need immediate and durable solutions to overcome the social, economical, financial, political and environmental crisis that our country is undergoing

Dear Mr. Premadasa, why don’t you table your plan of action to revive this country’s fledgling economy? We are yet to hear anything from you on that front. Do you have a strategy to address the current situation and then to stimulate the economy? If you do, let’s hear it! I have ascertained that you, like all others, have no plan(s) or ideas to revive the country’s economy. Prove me wrong!

Why dont you table it in the parliament as a priority for the next sitting to trim the executive powers of the Presidency and back to 19th amendment.

Abolishing executive presidency? Why not bring back 19A I believe serves the same purpose. Best example was during 2018 coup when Maithripala tried to oust RW but ended like puppet.
