While claiming that silence itself was a voice, Industry Minister Wimal Weerawansa said there was no change in their stance in allowing dual citizens to enter Parliament.
The Minister told reporters that they expressed their objections to the matter concerning dual citizenship in the 20th Amendment to the Constitution and that their stance remained unchanged.
He said they did not protest against Basil Rajapaksa or any other entering Parliament.
Responding to a question, Weerawansa said it was important if Basil Rajapaksa could win the economic challenges.
“We don’t know if he could overcome the economic challenges. If he can do so, it will be vital,” he said.
