Sri Lanka

Leader of the Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) Sajith Premadasa criticized the incumbent governments failure to fulfil its pledges of tax decrease, fuel rate reduction and eliminating queues for passports.Addressing a gathering in Avissawella, Premadasa stressed that the Sri Lankan individuals require real public service, not media spectacles.The JVP federal government led by the incumbent president is providing amusements to the country.
A country can not be governed through jokes.
Throughout the governmental election period, they made declarations about putting an end to lines for passports, yet they have not done it.The solutions offered through text messages and social networks are worthless.
At the minute, the queues have actually expanded.
They also promised to lower the Value Added Tax, Advance Personal Income Tax and PAYE tax.
Nevertheless, none have been minimized, he stressed.Furthermore, Premadasa included: Earlier, they said they would not be beholden to the International Monetary Fund.
Nevertheless, now they have actually accepted work with them.
They said they will not be jailed by the Fuel Price Formula yet they have actually become sent to prison by it.Even though they had the opportunity to lower the rates of fuels utilized by most of the general public, they only decreased the rates of 95 octane gas and Super Diesel for the benefit of the elites.
Have they decreased the costs of fuel despite the fact that they previously made declarations that they would? Why have not they decreased the electrical power tariff when they assured to do so?, he questioned.They do not need to form a parliament and satisfy those pledges.
Enough of those eyeglasses, the general public requirement genuine service, not spectacles., Premadasa expressed.
