The Foreign Ministry was confused today after the British Embassy in Colombo refused to grant Visa to the Outgoing Foreign Ministry Secretary Dr.Palitha Kohona to travel Britain.Dr.Kohona sent his Passport to the Embassy along with the Chief Protocol of the Ministry to obtain Visas. However the British Embassy refused to grant him the Visas citing that the Foreign Secretary himself should come and submit his Passport for Visas.After the Embassy's refusal the Foreign Ministry submitted his Passport again but the Embassy refused it for the second time.After the Refusal the Foreign Ministry Officials tried to contact the Acting British High Commissioner to get Assistance in this regard but were failed to reaching him.
Meanwhile the British Embassy said that they will not refused any Visa Application due to a Political Biasness and stressed that The Embassy is act according to the law.
