VIDEO: Will leave govt. if 13A is abolished - Vasu

I am completely against the abolition of the Provincial Council system, National Languages and Social Integration Minister Vasudeva Nanayakkara said today. He added that he would no longer remain with the government if the PC system is abolished.

 

Addressing a press conference in Colombo Nanayakkara said that he opposed imperialism. The power vested in Provincial councils will never exceed the Central Government, whoever claims otherwise is ill informed of the subject, he added.

 

Nanayakkara also noted that Minister Wimal Weerawansa has called to reduce the powers being devolved and not to abolish the 13th amendment.
