President Mahinda Rajapaksa prorogued Parliament for one month from midnight Tuesday. Government sources said the Parliament would meet again on June 5.
The Opposition criticized the decision asserting that it was a clear sign of weakness. The government dismissed the Opposition claim.
The sources said the result of the May 10 election to the Eastern Provincial Council would bring the UNP to its knees.
