Gamage to support National Government proposal

Galle District MP Piyasena Gamage said he will support the proposal to set up a national government brought in parliament by the UNP at voting time.

Gamage said there were many other members in the SLFP who should be subjected to disciplinary inquiries before him. He challenged SLFP General Secretary Dayasiri Jayasekara to conduct inquiries against such persons. Gamage said it was they who ensured the SLFP victory when people like Jayasekara were jumping from one party to another.

There had been no disciplinary inquires of this nature in the history of the SLFP. Gamage said they were members of a national government earlier too.

He was not concerned about ministry posts but would support a proposal to form a national government because he had worked with dedication to the party he belonged at all times.
