Nalin Bandara Jayamaha rejected the attribution of responsibility to “previous governments,” stating that his Government had made significant progress within two years. He said a cheque had been issued before they left office within two months, and argued that responsibility for subsequent developments lay with the Government in power from 2020 onward.

Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 When you say “previous governments”, that does not apply to ours. In two years we achieved much. The cheque was issued and within two months we had to leave office. Responsibility from 2020 onwards lies with the then Government.
