The Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna (JVP) voiced their concerns on the quality of life Sri Lankans are presented with during a media brief held yesterday (27). “This government promised prosperity to the people, yet they are unable to provide three meals a day. The Consumer Affairs Authority (CAA) took such stringent measures in the beginning, and now there’s not a hum. The Government said that they have appointed a Commissioner General for Essential goods, whereas the people of this country doesn’t have food,” stated the JVP Chief Secretary Tilvin Silva. Silva went on to say that the Government has proved to be a failure in all promises made, and they (Government) would have to revoke the gazettes issued initially as a food shortage is inevitable.
