The Jathika Hela Urumaya (JHU) said today it had decided to vote against the three gazette notifications permitting the setting up of a mixed development project and flash a red light at the Government which was veering off from its stated principles of creating a national economy.

JHU parliamentarian Athuraliye Rathana Thera said the party was not attempting to topple the Government but was showing it where it was going wrong.

“We supported the president to take office in 2005 and 2010 so as to create a national economy and move towards a better society. But we have our doubts now whether this Government moving towards that objective,” he said. (Ajith Siriwardana)
