The hartal campaign has been organized to voice support for Mr. Wigneswaran, who is facing a challenge to his post as Chief Minister after 21 Northern Provincial Councilors submitted a motion of no confidence against him to Northern Province Governor Reginald Cooray. There are a total of 38 elected members in the NPC. Meanwhile, 15 PC members yesterday submitted a letter with their signatures to the Governor voicing support for the Mr. Vigneswaran. The crisis was precipitated after the CM asked two Provincial Ministers to resign and for two others to go on leave over allegations of corruption and abuse of power.
