The Thero noted that a number of cabinet ministers have resigned from their ministerial portfolios and it should be followed by Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe as well. The Thero further added that it is the Prime Minister's duty to assist the new president to implement his plan with a new prime minister and a cabinet who shares a similar vision and ideology. The Thero went on to note that in 2015, the former President Maithripala Sirisena was sworn in as the president, he appointed a prime minister to his liking and it was not hindered by the defeated Mahinda Rajapaksa.
