19A for the South – ‘Zero’ for the NE
by S. V. Kirubaharan
( May 8, 2015, Paris, Sri Lanka Guardian) Sri Lankan Members of Parliament successfully adopted the 19th amendment on 28 April 2015. In a Parliament of 225 members, 212 voted in favour of the same. There is no doubt that this was a historical achievement. Usually the government and the opposition cast their votes against each other.
