Mangala wants his previous ministry, none other...

Though there are rumours that Mangala Samaraweera has surrendered to Mahinda Rajapaksha like Anura did, they're not quite right up to now. Since there were some private meetings with Mahinda & Mangala, people and especially those who praises this government made up their minds that the government is stabilized again. But it is being reported that former minister Mangala Samaraweera has on formed the president that he would reassume duties if he stops the campaign against Sripathi Suriarachchi and Tiran Allas and if the head of state makes sure that an atmosphere like on the 9th of February wouldn't occur again.

Sources say that Mangala's previous portfolios were given to Chamal Rajapakse because some of the department heads and union leaders had told the government officials not to reappoint him to the ministry as he might take revenge from them.

Samaraweera has rejected an offer made by the president asking him to take over the ministry of irrigation, saying that he cannot look into a ministry that he doesn't know anything of. Then the president has offered the ministry of Urban Development. Samaraweera has turned down that offer as well saying that he cannot afford to create a brawl with Minister Dinesh Gunawardena by doing so, despite him liking the ministry very much.

Former minister Mangala Samaraweera is scheduled to leave for London on the 19th of May.
