  • 17 March 2026 AI summary Hon.

  • 6 March 2026 AI summary Mujibur Rahuman challenged Government criticism of the Yahapalana administration over the Easter attacks, noting that key investigators now relied on by the Government had been appointed during that period. He questioned why the Government delayed action for six days after Iranian vessels sought permission to enter Sri Lankan waters, arguing that earlier naval intervention could have saved lives, while acknowledging the President’s later decision to rescue those aboard. He also called for an inquiry into whether the Navy Commander had invited the Iranian ships and criticised the Government’s claim of neutrality, citing reported condemnation of Iranian attacks and silence on civilian deaths and the assassination of a state leader.
