The Association for Friendship and Love (AFRIEL), an NGO based in Vavuniya, carried out its own survey on the proposed constitutional reforms.
For months, it continued its efforts for a meeting with Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe. It came last week when an AFRIEL youth delegation was told they could meet him for a brief discussion in Parliament last Thursday.
