SJB and Opposition Leader Sajith Premadasa yesterday alleged in Parliament that the Wickremesinghe-Rajapaksa government had thrown a party at Temple Trees Monday night to celebrate the increase of the Value-Added Tax (VAT) from 15% to 18%.
The Opposition Leader claimed that former President Mahinda Rajapaksa and all government MPs had attended the party hosted by Prime Minister Dinesh Gunawardena to celebrate the VAT increase.
The Opposition Leader said an SLPP MP who declared that he would not participate in the vote on the VAT increase had also been there.
