The main Opposition Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) last weekend held a residential workshop for its parliamentary group at a hotel in Kalutara. Around 40 SJB MPs attended the workshop, and the absence of several senior SJB MPs had been criticised by several MPs who had attended the meetings. Several topics were discussed during the workshop. Further, a decision was taken to hold discussions with all small political parties to muster their support for the programme to formulate an alternative government. It was finally decided that workshops for the parliamentary group would be held once in two months in order to ensure that all SJB MPs were aware of the party’s path and were in line with them.
