PM warns CEB saboteurs

BY Thiyaga Srimalie Bandara-2016-03-17

Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe warned yesterday that several high officials will have to go home if there is another power outage causing serious inconveniences in the country. He also emphasized the fact that he is implementing every step possible, regarding this issue, as a Prime Minister who was appointed by the people.
The Prime Minister made these comments when he met a group of young parliamentarians of the United National Front.
This group urged the Prime Minister to take preemptive action against the destabilization plans of certain members of the Government Medical Officers' Association (GMOA) who were acting like dictators and to end the sabotage by some officials of the Ceylon Electricity Board.
They presented this demand when they went to meet the Prime Minister to tell him how successful the protest rally held under the theme 'let us create space for the new Sri Lanka' at the Lipton Circus in Colombo on Tuesday.A meeting to inform the Prime Minister of the success of the protest rally organized by the National Youth Front and the young parliamentarians of the United National Party was held yesterday (16) at Temple Trees.
It was during this meeting that the young parliamentarians submitted their appeal to the Prime Minister.
The Prime Minister responded that unlike the GMOA, which earned commissions and played around with the State administration, the engineers at the CEB will not be given any slack to dance as they wanted to. The young parliamentarians took this opportunity to express their gratitude to the Prime Minister for attending the protest rally organized by them.
