NEXT DEPUTY MINISTERS……..?


Who will be the next Deputy Ministers?:
Some clues have already been let off:


It is reliably reported from well informed sources that a new cabinet reshuffle is around the corner. A number of Members of Parliament are due to get alleviated to the Posts of Deputy Ministers.
This is an exercise that was proposed  by M.P for Galle District, Nishantha Muthuhettigama and a few others to give this opportunity for those who polled the highest number of Preferential  votes at the last General Election.
Accordingly the names Member of Parliament for the Hambantota District, Namal Rajapaksa,Sanath Jayasuriya,Sarath Weerasekara,Lakhsman Wasantha Perera,Hemal Gunaratna,V.K.Indika,Neranjan Wickremasinghe,P.Digambaran and Praba Ganeshan are expected to be made Deputy Ministers, it is reliably learnt.
It is also a condition that those who polled the highest number of preferential votes also should have worked as Members of Pradeshiya Sabas/Provincial councils for at least two terms. It is learnt that those Members of Parliament who have joined the Government ranks from minority parties are also entitled to be given the posts of Deputy Ministerial portfolios.
Deputy Ministerial posts would be made known in the next few weeks after the proposed cabinet reshuffle.
