Justice Minister Wijeyadasa Rajapaksa has said that no idea has been presented by the government regarding the abolition of the executive power president system.
For this, he has assured that the presidential election will be held by the coming October.
In this regard, he said, “There is no arrangement on the part of the government to postpone the election of the president. The government does not need it.
General Election
I cannot say whether the general election will be held before the presidential election.
The Principal can decide on such conduct. He has the legal authority to do so.
Although funds are earmarked for the presidential election only, funds for general elections can be obtained through a supplementary motion.
Executive Principal System
Neither myself nor anyone else in the Cabinet as the Minister of Justice has so far put forward any idea of ​​abolishing the executive headship system.
There is no intention to do so. Nor is it a democratic mechanism in the present situation.
Abuse of referendum is not democracy. “The black spot caused by the plebiscite held in 1982 has not changed even today,” he said.
