The Hon. (Ms.) Krishnan Kalaichelvi
Krishnan Kalaichelvi stated that the government has begun practical measures to address public needs, particularly programmes aimed at improving women’s incomes, rather than merely criticizing past governments. She expressed confidence that, with women holding the offices of Prime Minister and Minister of Women and Child Affairs, appropriate solutions would be brought forward for issues faced by women in Sri Lanka.
Verbatim record (translated)
Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English¶ 01 Hon. Presiding Member, please grant me one minute!
¶ 02 Rather than only pointing out what past governments failed to implement, we have already initiated the necessary steps to address the needs of our people—especially women—including practical programmes to resolve their income issues. The Hon. Prime Minister of this country is a woman; similarly, the Minister of Women and Child Affairs is a woman. Therefore, we will bring proper solutions to the problems faced by women in this country. With that, I take my leave. Thank you.
