Opposition leader Sajith Premadasa called for immediate relief measures to support citizens affected by the country’s ongoing socio-economic challenges, which have been worsened by the global impact of the Iran conflict.

In a special statement, the leader urged the government to reduce the prices of essential energy sources, including fuel, gas, and electricity, to ease the burden on the public. Highlighting the hardships faced by many households, the statement emphasized the urgent need for practical solutions to address rising living costs.

He also called for revisions to the existing agreement with the International Monetary Fund (IMF), proposing the introduction of a comprehensive relief package aimed at supporting those most affected by the economic downturn.

Furthermore, it was noted that the opposition would extend its support to these measures during the next parliamentary session, signaling a willingness for bipartisan cooperation to address the crisis.

The statement reflects growing concern over the economic strain on citizens and underscores the need for immediate policy action to provide relief and stabilize the situation.
