No issue with closing down parliament for 2-3 years – Vidura

(UTV|COLOMBO) – There will be no issue with the closure of a Parliament that does not have respect or goodwill towards one another and does not understand the issues of the people, according to the State Minister Vidura Wickramanayake.

He expressed these views, attending an event held at the Sri Medhankara Maha Vidyalaya in Horana.

He pointed out that the Parliament is the state institution that costs the most daily. He stated that the government spends Rs 9.2 million on a day that Parliament convenes while Rs 8.7 million on a day that the Parliament is not held.

However, there is no respect towards each other within the parliament, Wickramanayake said.
