The National People’s Power has decided to support the motion of no confidence brought by the opposition against Speaker Mahinda Yapa Abeywardena.
Dr. Nalinda Jayatissa, former Member of Parliament of the National People’s Power, says that this motion of no confidence is justified, so his party supports it.
Also, he said, this controversy is not brought about by the behaviour of the Speaker or the way the opposition is treated but because the amendments proposed by the Attorney General were presented to the Supreme Court by the Attorney General and not included in the session of the Supreme Court when the online bill was discussed.
He said it was a violation of parliamentary traditions and the no-confidence motion against the Speaker was justified.
The Samagi Jana Balawegaya has said that they will bring the motion of no confidence and the signing has now started.
