Sajith slams Ranil for undertaking over 18 foreign visits in 17 months

Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) leader Sajith Premadasa has alleged that President Ranil Wickremesinghe has secured an additional Rs 200 mn through Parliament as funds allocated for him were not sufficient.

Addressing a public rally at Naramala, the Opposition Leader said that in spite of the fact that a vast majority of people were experiencing untold hardships, Ranil Wickremesinghe, since he assumed presidency in July 2022, had been overseas 18 times.

Premadasa asked the President not to indulge in wasteful expenditure at a time the people were struggling to make ends meet.
