President Gotabaya Rajapaksa has rejected the resignation submitted by Justice Minister Ali Sabry after the latter expressed his disappointment at the gazette notice issued over the One County One Law concept and being left in the dark over the matter, the Daily Mirror reliably learns.
A senior political source said that President Rajapaksa was in discussions with Sabry during the past few days and the gazette is likely to be amended, keeping in line with the original concept of the One Country One Law policy which was discussed by the Justice Ministry.
Although the President Task Force appointed to study and draft the proposals of the One Country One Law will continue to be headed by Ven. Gananasara Thero, it has been conveyed that the proposals will eventually have to be presented to the Justice Ministry for further consideration.
Sabry had clearly conveyed this to the President and both he and the President are now in discussions to stick to the original concept which was discussed which would be advantageous for all communities in the country and would have to be finally legally approved before coming into law.
"There was clearly a misunderstanding in the gazette which has been issued and now the matter is under discussion. It will be sorted soon," the senior political source said.
Sabry will continue as the Justice Minister. (JAMILA HUSAIN)

It will be a foolish matter to resign, help the president to solve the problems like a man, instead of running away from the problems.

Inner circle drama. The orbit is very strongly bonded. This guy just watered down the anger. Nothing other than a hoodwink.

Whatever you do, don't favour any religion or ethnicity. Get rid of ALL useless laws and religious and ethnic things that are currently in law. SL needs to be a strong secular nation in order to become a developed country. There are too many laws based on religion and ethnicity which hinder the development and progress. Religions and ethnic things should not be sponsored by a State, rather they should be private matters to citizens, if they wish to follow it. People who do not want to practice a religion should be free to do so. Child marriages must be eradicated.

First this fellow Sabry needs to have honest principles. He does not need to wait, discuss

No one with iota of common sense will appoint such an extreme minded person to head any committee leave alone such an important one as One country one law.

At least Sabry had the guts to submit his resignation.
