Deputy Minister Media Shantha Bandara resigns

Owing to the statement made by the President Maithripala Sirisena a few days ago which

surprised those in the UPFA ranks it was unanimously decided by many who had joined the government to quit. Accordingly many had already quit the government and it is reported that the deputy minister of media and mass communication, UPFA Kurunegala district parliamentarian Shantha Bandara also would quit when he had only another with two and half weeks to remain until the general election.

He could have remained as the deputy minister for a further short about a week to two week period until the next cabinet was elected and sworn in.
