The Opposition Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) has decided to suspend MP A. H. M. Fowzie’s membership in the party.
This decision was taken by the working committee of the Samagi Jana Balawegaya at its meeting today against MP Fowzie based on the fact that he voted in favor of the government’s proposal of the International Monetary Fund loan facility.
The party’s executive board will also assign the party’s disciplinary board to take the necessary measures in this regard.
Mr. Fowzie, who is also a former mayor of Colombo was appointed as a member of parliament on February 09 this year to fill the vacancy due to the resignation of Mr. Mujibar Rahman of the Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) party from the post.
