Badulla District UPFA MP Nimal Siripala de Silva was delegated as Opposition Leader after the triumph of Maithripala Sirisena at the 2015 Presidential Election. Be that as it may, his qualification was addressed by a few political gatherings after SLFP joined the legislature on March 22.
Fair Left Front pioneer Vasudeva Nanayakkara as of late reported that he and a few different MPs will propose the name of Mahajana Eksath Peramuna pioneer Dinesh Gunawardena as restriction pioneer. National Freedom Front pioneer Wimal Weerawansa later told media that 58 MPs have swore their backing for Gunawardena.
In the interim, Cabinet Spokesperson Dr. Rajitha Senaratne as of late told media that no UPFA MP is qualified for hold the position. As he would like to think, just TNA or JVP is qualified for the restriction pioneer post.
Then again, some UPFA MPs including Nanayakkara, Weerawansa and Gunawardena are sitting in resistance autonomously after the 2015 Presidential Election.
In the interim, Tamil National Alliance pioneer R. Sampanthan as of late guaranteed the restriction pioneer post for his gathering, focusing on that TNA was the greatest resistance assemble in parliament, after SLFP acknowledged clerical portfolios.
Sri Lanka Freedom Party General Secretary Anura Priyadarshana Yapa as of late expressed that the Speaker will give his choice on the contention with respect to the resistance pioneer on April 7.
