All efforts will be undertaken in the new year to topple the Government, Joint Opposition declared.

Budget amendments have caused massive controversies. Joint opposition propose to move further more amendments to the budget and question the Government to inform the house, how the deficit will be bridged?

Some of the Government MPs have expressed their support to No-Confidence motion against Finance Minster.

Finance Minister attempted to release payment of 300 million rupees to an individual, supposed to have provided consultancy services to the then government in renegotiating  government loans with foreign countries, which has been stopped by the President

The government has decided to change Finance Ministry Portfolio in the new year. In this context no-confidence motion  brought against FM, Ravi Karunanayake  became justifiable , Joint opposition said.

Date for the debate on  no confidence motion  against Ravi Karunanayaka will be taken up in the next Parliamentary Party Leaders Meeting .

Some Government Ministers and Ruling Party MPs are  willing  to support the  no confidence motion. Therefore joint opposition is going to  demand a secret ballot in parliament , said Ranjit Zoysa.
