Systems failure hinders President’s move to get bill passed
Systems failure by a Sri Lankan mobile operator caused serious concerns for President Maithripala Sirisena who was in New York to attend the UN General Assembly a week ago.
It prevented him from making calls to political leaders when Parliament was set to pass the Provincial Council Elections (Amendment) Bill. The development raised doubts whether interested groups were attempting any act of sabotage.
Mr Sirisena is learnt to have spoken to a top rung management official of the company concerned over the issue upon his return to Colombo. It had transpired that a human error caused by a technical hand was the cause. The company concerned had apologised.
