President Mahinda Rajapakse who returned from Bhutan Friday, CWC
sources told media.
Meanwhile five more cabinet ministers and two deputy ministers are
expected to be sworn in on Monday. Armumgam Thondaman, Professor Tissa
Vitarana, Sarath Amunugama, Keheliya Rambukwella and S.B.Dissanayake
are tipped to be appointed as ministers. Mahindananda Aluthgamage and

re-poll later held only in Nawalapitiya electorate. The report was to
be submitted to the Sri Lankan president on Saturday.
