The Lanka Sama Samaja Party (LSSP) led by Prof. Tissa Vitarana, has decided to quit the government, reports say.
According to the 'Lanka C News' website, Prof. Vitarana had stated that although a request had been made to discuss the anti-public conduct and threats made by the members of coalition's main stakeholder - the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP), party leaders have not responded.
'Lanka C News' further reports :
Therefore, Prof. Vitarana is of the view that the LSSP shouldn't remain a part of the government coalition any longer.
Accordingly, the proposal to leave the government would be submitted during the next politburo meeting of the party, he had further said.
