The Leader of the Opposition, Sajith Premadasa, raised a pointed question regarding an emergency procurement of nine additional coal ships, demanding an explanation from the government. He implied that this urgent purchase contradicts any official position that there is no problem with coal supply, challenging the government to account for the decision.
It is simple: if there is no issue with coal, why is there a sudden emergency purchase of nine additional coal ships? Please answer that.
