The Northern Provincial Council has been in a crisis situation lately with a motion of no-confidence being presented against C.V Wigneswaran – the Northern Province Chief Minister.

As the turmoil in the North continue to worsen, Opposition leader R. Sampanthan has written a letter to Chief Minister C.V Wigneswaran.

The letter states the following

• Opposition leader R Sampanthan cannot provide the certification required by Chief Minister with regard to the situation in the NPC.
• The two provincial ministers were not found guilty by the investigation committee.
• The letter questions the actions against the two ministers who were not found guilty.
• Opposition leader cannot comprehend the fact that chief minister has asked him to certify that the two ministers will not intimidate the complainants till the investigations are over.
• The certification requested by CM “cannot be provided”.
• Support will be provided to resolve the matter.
• The opposition leader says he can advice the ministers to not intervene in the independent legal inquiry.

This situation arose after the chief minister took a decision to take disciplinary action against four provincial ministers in the northern provincial council.
