UNP backbenchers to vote against President’s expenditure head



UNP backbenchers are planning to vote against the expenditure head of President Maithripala Sirisena when it is taken up at the coming budget, UNP MP Mujibur Rahaman said.

He told a media briefing that UNP backbenchers have come up with a proposal that the party should not vote for the expenditure head in a situation where the President is continuously criticising the UNP.

“President is always criticising continuously and calling us thieves. There is no reason why we should help in getting his expenditure heads passed,” Mr. Rahaman said.

He also accused the President of sabotaging development work and not allowing the Cabinet to approve any paper.(Yohan Perera)
