Further to the resignation announcement of W. D Lakshman yesterday (10) as governor of CBSL, State Minister Ajith Nivard Cabraal is to hand over his resignation from his parliamentary seat on Monday in order to be appointed as Lakshman’s replacement mid next week. When The Morning asked Mr Cabraal few days ago on his decision of re-joining the CBSL, He chose to neither deny or accept the speculation that was in the air at that time. Cabraal is currently serving as the State Minister of Money and Capital Market and State Enterprise Reforms since August 2020, and entered Parliament through the National List.
