Thonda jumps back...!!!

Ceylon Workers' Congress (CWC) leader and the Minister of Youth Youth Empowerment and Socio Economic Development Arumugam Thondaman and the four deputy ministers who represented his party decided to resign from the government, said the CWC media spokesman R. Yogarajan to 'LeN'.

He further said that the resignation papers of all of them were handed over to the Presidential Secretary Lalith Weerathunga this evening.
Deputy Minister of Posts Sangaralingam Sellasamy, the Deputy Minister of Posts Muttu Sivanlingam, Deputy Minister of Education Murugan Satchithanandan and the Deputy Minister of National Integration Shanmugam Jegathgeeswaran are the four deputy ministers who resigned today.

Arumugam Thondaman left for Kotagala after submitting his resignation papers.

Reportedly, a warm exchange of words between Nuththu Sivalingam and Basil Rajapakse over a statement made by the Deputy Minister caused the resignation. Basil Rajapakse has threatened to Sivalingam and challenged him to resign. The incident has taken place before Thondaman.
