Northern Provincial Council Chief Minister CV Wigneswaran was scheduled to meet Prime Minister Ranil Wickrememsinghe to discuss a mechanism to obtain foreign aid from development projects in the North-East.
The Chief Minister has long sought to establish a mechanism that allows the Northern Province to raise its own funds for development. A request which has until now been denied by Colombo.
Ministers of the Northern Provincial Council, District Secretaries and several state officials are expected to join the discussion, reports HiruNews.
