Govt decisions have no scientific basis: Eran

COLOMBO (News 1st); The Government has no scientific basis to any of its decisions, alleges SJB MP Eran Wickramaratne. Speaking at a press conference convened today (21), the MP stated that the Government had a certain fear that the harvest would most likely be reduced, which would then lead to a necessity for mass food importation. He went onto say that therefore, the Government had to reverse the decision on the ban on chemical fertilizer, and is currently in the process of allowing for the gradual reversal of the decision.
