Seven intervenient petitions filed in SC supporting 20A
Seven intervenient petitions were filed in the Supreme Court today supporting the 20th Amendment to the Constitution which was tabled in Parliament by the Government.
Of the 7 petitions, three were filed by Ministers Prof. G.L. Peiris, Nimal Siripala de Silva and Gamini Lokuge.
Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) Party General Secretary Sagara Kariyawasam also filed a petition in favor for the proposed 20th Amendment to the Constitution.
The petitioners said the draft of the 20A was compliant with the existing constitution and that it need not be approved at a referendum as approval with a two-thirds majority in Parliament was sufficient.
