Tuesday , 11 September 2012
Leader of the Sri Lanka Muslim Congress, Rauff Hakeem says that the views of party members and those who voted for the party will be taken into consideration when deciding as to who the party would support to form an administration in the eastern Provincial Council.
Speaking to Newsfirst, Hakeem said that TNA Parliamentary Group Leader, R. Sampanthan
had discussed the matter with him over the telephone.
Rauff Hakeem shared these thoughts.
’I participated in the government’s parliamentary group meeting. Few questions came up about our stance there as well but I explained that it will take time to provide them with a proper response. I discussed about this with the President as well this morning. I believe that we should agree on certain questions relating to the principles. We should also remember that TNA will be the focal point in forming a broad alliance. Therefore, we think we should act with responsibility at a critical point. People hope that we will do what we should to reduce these problems among ethnic groups and move towards a sustainable political solution. Therefore, we will take these into consideration and arrive at a decision.’
