President Maithripala Sirisena said that a special Cabinet meeting will be held on the Avant-Garde controversy on November 11 at 10am.

This comes following the heated exchange in the Cabinet meeting last evening, when Dr. Rajitha Senaratne and Patali Champika Ranawaka had criticized Law and Order Minister Tilak Marapana.

They accused Marapana of trying to make a serious matter appear trivial and questioned him being the lawyer of the Avant-Garde Maritime Securities company.
