Sri Lanka's High Commissioner to the United Kingdom, Amari Wijewardena, has tendered her resignation, according to reports widely circulated in local media.
However, the Ministry in a press release today noted that the reports being circulated in the media attributed to the Secretary to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, stating that Sri Lanka’s High Commissioner to the UK, Mrs. Amari Wijewardene, has resigned, are incorrect.
Foreign Ministry in a release further stated that High Commissioner Wijewardene will conclude her contract on her own volition by 31 March 2018.
Amari Wijewardene was appointed as Sri Lanka’s High Commissioner to the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland in 2016. Prior to her appointment as High Commissioner, she was the Chairperson and Managing Director of the Swadeshi Group of Companies.
