Disciplinary action on the cards
By Uditha Kumarasinghe
“The SLFP hierarchy doesn’t need to issue special guidelines to SLFP MPs in the
Joint Opposition (JO) not to attend the Paada Yathra in Kandy on July 28 as they
are aware that the SLFP has no connection whatsoever to that event, “SLFP
General Secretary and Agriculture Minister Duminda Dissanayake told the Sunday
Observer yesterday.
The SLFP Central Committee might resort to disciplinary action in this
regard,, he said. “However, we didn’t resort to such disciplinary action during
the past couple of months because we wanted the party to be united and to
prevent any rift within the party,” the Minister said.
“This is a very decisive moment. We have to wait and see. The SLFP doesn’t need
to issue guidelines to MPs in the JO about an event that is not organised by the
party,”he said. |
