Former President Mahinda Rajapaksa says the time period of the national government has expired.

Rajapaksa made these comments while speaking to reporters at Battaramulla today (21).

“There is no clear ruling party in the country at present and it has led the country to an unstable state. The President, Prime Minister and the MPs of the national government are all working unto their whims and fancies,” he said.

Therefore, Speaker Karu Jayasuriya should take a clear decision whether the national government was still in existence and give a ruling on the validity of the Cabinet as soon as possible, the former President added.
