Posted on 5th Apr 2022 06:57 pm by rohit kumar

Sri Lanka, trapped in a deep economic crisis, has been forced to make another big decision. Sri Lanka has decided to close its embassies in two countries Norway and Iraq and the consulate in Sydney, Australia. It is believed that Sri Lanka has taken this decision due to the economic crisis. For the time being, they have been temporarily closed.

 

 

The cabinet had given mass resignation

 

Let us inform you that amidst violence and political speculation in Sri Lanka, the cabinet had collectively resigned on the late night of 3 March. However, Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa did not resign. After this, the possibility of forming an all-party government in Sri Lanka was expected soon, in which the leaders of the opposition were also said to be included. However, President Gotabaya Rajapaksa's efforts did not materialize and opposition leaders flatly refused to be a part of it.

 

 

People's protest against President Gotabaya

 

People's protests against President Gotabaya Rajapaksa are increasing amid the ongoing economic crisis in Colombo. Locals protested against the Sri Lankan government at Independence Square on Monday. The protesters were demanding the resignation of President Rajapaksa. Meanwhile, the Leader of the Opposition in the Sri Lankan Parliament Sajith Premadasa said Sri Lanka's two main opposition parties, the SJB and the JVP, rejected the president's request to form an all-party interim government. They demanded that the President should resign.

 

Despite the curfew, there are widespread demonstrations in Colombo. The protesters are demanding the resignation of President Gotabaya Rajapaksa. President Gotabaya Rajapaksa issued a special gazette notification late Friday night declaring a state of emergency in Sri Lanka with immediate effect from April 1.

 

an old friend came to work in India

 

Amid Sri Lanka's deteriorating economy, its old friend India has come in handy. India has provided not only diesel and other petrochemicals but also rice and other food items to Sri Lanka. Financial assistance of $1 billion and $1.5 billion has also been provided to Sri Lanka in two phases. This has increased support for India among the population of Sri Lanka. Whereas resentment towards China, which has invested heavily in Sri Lanka, has increased.
