Former President Maithripala Sirisena today said President Gotabaya Rajapaksa had agreed to form an interim government under a new Prime Minister for a short period, but this was denied by senior officials in the President's office who attended the meeting.
The senior official told Daily Mirror that when the matter of an interim government was discussed with the President, Gotabaya Rajapaksa had requested the SLFPers to submit their proposals for one and show their numbers in Parliament.
The President had informed them that if the SLFP had the numbers they could also nominate a Prime Minister who they thought could be appointed.
He said once this was submitted he would discuss the matter further.
Former President Maithripala Sirisena had however then informed the media that the President had agreed to an interim government under a new Prime Minister for a short period. (JAMILA HUSAIN)

How can they form a govt. They don't know the key decision taken in the meeting. Everyone gives their own interpretation.

All these guys are beating around the bush without providing a solution. Both wretched guys, the president and pm who have brought the country to its knees must go. People will not settle for anything less.

You are all a pack of liars... Even Pinocchio will faint at the amount of lies you are speaking..

Mythiripala Sirisena is much more better than Gota, only thing he was involved in the Easter Sunday Attacks, other than that he is a OK to be the PM.
Prof. M. Peter Arulraj Saturday, 30 April 2022 07:32 AM
Sirisena you are Ok but still you have Easter Sunday Allegations pending, moreover we don't want Gota being Prez. We need an immediate solution for our present crisis manned by a youth who could solve it soon never to drag.
R.P. Bandaranayake (Attorney-at-Law) Saturday, 30 April 2022 07:34 AM
Under President Gota we will never expect any good for this country, for sure SriLanka will sink unless Gota steps down.

Rajapakshes should get out and get lost, no other alternative - afterwards, let us decide the right leader to rule our nation.
Man Saturday, 30 April 2022 07:39 AM
@Dinesh J, At the meeting, Rajapakshas' tell one stance and change with the advice of henchmen, thereafter. The people who brought benefit and conceal the investigations of the Easter Attack, are the Executors. No one else, Venerable.

What a pathetic pack of jokers who continue to do deals and ruin Sri Lanka. Very sad state of affairs.
jayt Saturday, 30 April 2022 08:17 AM

Probably MS couldn't follow what was going on.

As long as Gota being President of Sri Lanka no good will be done for the public but for him and his brothers and their families for sure, we request the 11 parties to keep away without agreeing to work under Gota.
Prof. Bernard Benjamin Saturday, 30 April 2022 01:12 PM
Knowing that Mahinda is not going to step down, why you people going behind Gota, no use, waste of time and energy.
Aquarius Saturday, 30 April 2022 01:29 PM
All these parliamentarians should be audited and any undeclared assets should be confiscated by the treasury and use for the people of the country.
Mano Manoharan Saturday, 30 April 2022 02:31 PM
Pack of liers. A whole lot of them in Parliament should be sent out and a fresh election should be held

Every second you corrupt, uneducated Rajapaksas stay in power, we loose Millions of Dollars. You have stolen enough money. Gota go Home

All looted money by ministers is in dubai banks

This man (person) is old hat now. Giving such a spineless irresponsible person used to claim that he learned of what was happening when he was President was from the Newspapers! he was nonchalant about the Easter Sunday massacre too. Kindly leave him out of ANY position in any future Government in Sri Lanka. Those who favour or support him are simplistic and ignorant as those unmentionables in Government now. MM
