Dayasiri Jayasekara admitted that the Maithri-Mahinda faction lacked a majority in parliament today.
He made this observation at the cabinet press briefing that was held at the Department of Government Information. He also stated that Ranil Wickrmesinghe too does not have the numbers to prove a majority.
However, the parliament passed a No-Confidence Motion (NCM) against the country’s purported prime minister, Mahinda Rajapaksa, removing him and his cabinet from their posts. The Speaker in a release said that 122 MPs have voted in favour of the NCM.
