Government unable to control prices of goods – Kiriella
Posted by Editor on December 21, 2020 - 7:08 am
Chief Opposition Whip Lakshman Kiriella said that today there is no control on the prices of goods because the Government has lost control and people are suffering immensely as a result.
He said, the Yahapalana Government summoned the Cost of Living Committee, reviewed the prices of goods and controlled the prices of essential items.
Kiriella announced that the Samagi Jana Balawegaya, providing a very special precedent in democratic politics, had passed their constitution with several important decisions being made, including appointing the future leader by the Executive Committee of the Party.
