June 09, Colombo (LNW): The 13th Amendment to the Constitution will surely be implemented under a Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) administration, pledged Leader of the Opposition Sajith Premadasa, addressing a speech during the 225th phase of the ‘Sakwala‘ initiative implemented by the Opposition Party.
Whilst the Opposition Leader’s annunciation on the enactment of the 13th Amendment to the Constitution under an SJB-rule being made clear, he donated a smart classroom to Bharati Vidyalaya in Kilinochchi under the ‘Sakwala’ initiative today (09).
The Opposition Leader asserted that he, unlike many other politicians who brag about the implementation of the 13A hiding behind dithering, does not hesitate to implement the amendment, which had been the top of peaks in the political dialogue of Sri Lanka throughout the decades under numerous regimes, only to meet a dead-end.
Addressing the event, Premadasa reiterated his commitment to reenacting the 13A, as he once did during the International Labour Day on May 01, in attribution to all nine provinces of the country.
Accordingly, the Opposition Leader emphasised that what is said in the lawbook is obliged to be enacted upon, and therefore, will be enacted islandwide, thereby securing the political, social, economical, religious and cultural rights of the people of Sri Lanka.
