statement issued today (April 15), the UNP said it is astounded to learn that the national carrier has released an Expression of Interest
immediately and the Board of Directors must present an explanation to the Parliament regarding this decision, and noted that the government
read further.However, the irresponsible decision to seek the lease of a new aircraft for a loss-making airline will result in India
