Cabinet Spokesperson Minister Nalinda Jayatissa has denied reports of an impending Cabinet reshuffle or a change in the Prime Minister’s post.
Addressing the weekly Cabinet media briefing, Jayatissa dismissed speculation that he or Minister Bimal Ratnayake would be appointed Prime Minister, stating there had been no such discussions within the government.
“This is completely false. There has been no discussion or proposal to reshuffle the Cabinet or replace the Prime Minister,” he said, suggesting the rumours may have been circulated by opposition groups. (Newswire)
