The Sri Lanka Muslim
Congress stated that it will hand over its written objections regarding the
proposed changes to the 13th constitutional amendment to President Mahinda
Rajapaksa this afternoon (June 12).
SLMC General Secretary
Hassan Ali stated that the leaders of the ruling party intend on bringing about
new regulations that prevent Provincial Councils from amalgamating.
He also said that through
these proposed amendments, bills concerning Provincial Councils will no longer
have to be approved by every council but just the majority of the Provincial
Councils in the country.
The SLMC expressed their
strong objections to these proposed amendments.
