The difficulties faced by the people in the North and East, according to President Ranil Wickremesinghe, have already been addressed in a thorough proposal, but it is now up to the Tamil lawmakers to decide whether it should be implemented.
The President’s Media Division (PMD) reported that this was discussed with Tamil lawmakers from the North and East on Tuesday, July 18.
Wickremesinghe expressed his genuine intention to resolve the issues faced by the Tamil people without any political motivations. He elaborated on various bills and plans concerning the functioning of provincial councils, the Office of National Unity and Reconciliation, the Truth-Finding Mechanism, the Office of Missing Persons, and the development of the Northern and Eastern provinces.
Furthermore, the president highlighted the government’s development initiatives for the Northern and Eastern provinces, including projects focused on renewable energy, water supply, infrastructure development, investment promotion zones, and the tourism industry.
