SL minister to file motion against 13A

Sri Lanka's Media Minister, Champika Ranawaka will file a motion in parliament against the 13th Amendment and the provincial council system, reports the Colombo Gazette.

Arguing that granting land and police powers would be 'dangerous', Ranawaka said that if the Northern Provincial Council elections go ahead and the TNA comes to power it would use the 13th Amendment to divide the country.
