Minority government again failed to
show its majority in Parliament as parties in the opposition had passed the composition of Parliament select committee proposed by Speaker Karu Jayasuriya by majority of 121 votes,as 121 voted in favor of the composition whilst no one voted against it.
Just before the voting has commenced members of the minority government had left the house and few MP's have remained in government bench it has been reported .
Soon after the House leader of United National Front government Lakshman Kiriella and opposition Organizer Anura Kumara Dassanayake have propposed a vote by name to approve the composition of Parliament Select committee, As a result Minority government MP's walked out of the house opposing the move.
However speaker has decided to take the vote through the electronic system and as a result 121 MP's seated in opposition bench have voted in favour of the composition .
Accordingly appointed minority government MP's who nominated seven members for the Select committee got only five and the opposition including the United National Front Nominated around eleven numbers and got seven members .
