Ten SJB MPs to support APG

Nothing of that sort - Madduma Bandara

Ten Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) MPs have decided to extend support to the All Party Government sources said. Meanwhile, Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) General Secretary Ranjith Madduma Bandara yesterday categorially denied the statement made by certain print and electronic media that several SJB Parliamentarians including himself have decided to join the Government within the next few days.

“It is completely a false and fabricated statement. Our Party members have never taken or will never take even such a decision now,” Madduma Bandara said.

Speaking to Daily News Madduma Bandara further expressed his dissatisfaction over the planting of such made-up statements by certain media with the sole intention of gaining cheap publicity and said neither himself nor any other SJB MPs join this nature of temporary formed government where members have been picked from other political parties even without considering their abilities.

He said even the international community does not accept that this is a people’s friendly Government since almost all citizens in the country are suffering due to the on-going economic crisis.

Madduma Bandara further said under this current deteriorating economic situation in the country where no proper future plans to develop the economy, it is doubtful even a parliamentarian from any other party would like to join a Government in this nature.
