The Samagi Jana Balawegaya says that they will accept the challenge made by President Ranil Wickremesinghe to join the live dialogue with the International Monetary Fund.
Due to the comment made by the presidential candidates of Samagi Jana Balawega and Jathika Jana Balawega (NPP) on the presidential election stage that they will revise the conditions made with the International Monetary Fund in relation to the extended fund facility and debt restructuring program implemented in Sri Lanka if they come to power, Mr. Ranil Wickramasinghe made a challenge recently to hold a live video conversation with the IMF so that the people can witness the truth.
In response to this, the General Secretary of Samagi Jana Balawega, Mr. Ranjith Maddumabandara has stated this in a press release.
It is mentioned in the announcement that they will participate in any kind of dialogue with the IMF at any time.
However, neither the National People’s Power (NPP) nor the candidate Mr. Anura Dissanayake has given any response to this challenge by the President.
