Requests by the government affiliate Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) do not get due consideration by the president, said party MP S.M. Chandrasena.
Therefore, matters should at least be explained via the media, he told journalists at the SLPP head office in Battaramulla yesterday (22).
He also urged the government to mediate immediately to prevent buyers from purchasing paddy at very low prices during the harvesting period.
