when Highways Deputy Minister Nirmala Kotalawela called on him to
explain matters relating to the proposed 18th amendment to the
constitution yesterday.

should get unstinted support and co-operation of the people for the
success of his efforts to make the country victorious on the economic
front too, the Chief Sanghanayaka thera said.

would not prolong the President's term of office but would help enhance
