Parliament though various claims had been made by several groups about forming a new Government.
“As the biggest political party in the country, the UNP is ready to take up any challenge and has already had discussions with other parties regarding the formation of a Government at any given time. For that, we will get the support of President Maithripala Sirisena,” the minister said.
