Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa says the President has decided to convene the Parliament on November 05.
PM Rajapaksa stated this during a discussion held with the university lecturers today (01).
The President had prorogued the parliament for 11 days, from October 27 to November 16, when the parliament was scheduled to convene on November 05.
The relevant Extraordinary Gazette Notification was also published by the Presidential Secretariat on October 27.
The move came a day after Mahinda Rajapaksa was sworn in as Prime Minister before the President. Prior to that, the United People’s Freedom Alliance (UPFA) had decided to withdraw from the national government with the United National Party (UNP).
