SJB decides to support BASL proposals to address crisis
The Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) has decided to support the proposals put forward by the Bar Association of Sri Lanka (BASL) to address the National crisis, SJB MP Harin Fernando said.
Fernando told reporters that the decision was reached at a special meeting held with the participation of Opposition Leader Sajith Premadasa today.
The SJB noted that the BASL has proposed that the current President must step down and the Executive Presidency must be abolished.
Attorney At-Law Ajith P. Perera said that the SJB will meet the BASL to further discuss the issue.
He said the SJB will also seek the support of other political parties for this process.
Ajith P. Perera said that the proposals put forward by the BASL are on par with the policy of the SJB.
The former Minister said that SJB wants a proper political and economic program to be implemented.
He also noted that this will be a short-term process to address the current crisis. (Colombo Gazette)
