Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe informed COPE Chairman Charitha Herath to summon LITRO Lanka Ltd., before COPE tomorrow to clarify on the delay in supplying LP gas.

He told Parliament that LITRO has failed to take immediate steps to supply gas in spite of the payment has already been made to the gas shipment.

He said bowsers were not assigned to transport the consignment to LITRO plant even by 8.00 pm yesterday.

The Premier said relevent officials should be summoned before COPE and questioned as to why the process has been delayed. (Ajith Siriwardana and Yohan Perera)

Before that Litro should be charged for the deaths and destruction to houses of the consumers due to wrong compositions and which they covered up by blaming equipment like regulators and hose connections.

Damn good. Our beauracrats also should share the blame for the pathetic situation in the country
