Posters in North denouncing Premachandran

A large number of posters had sprung up in several areas in the North including the Kilinochchi town area criticising TNA MP and EPRLF leader Suresh Premachandran and praising the decision taken by Chief Minister C.V.Wigneswaran over the appointments of ministers for the Northern Provincial Council.

Sources said that posters put up mainly in Kilinochchi, Paranthan and Mullaitivu area stated that the people had not voted to give ministerial portfolios to killers.

Nine council members who boycotted the official ceremony on Thursday are to take oaths at Mullivaikal today. Rebel members are demanding at least four ministerial portfolios for their members including Premachandran’s brother in the Northern Provincial Council.

However, Chief Minister Wigneswaran had said that he was only giving portfolios to educated members.
