Speaking at a rally on August 17, Dissanayake promised to remove VAT on food, healthcare services, and school supplies in the first budget under his leadership.
“We will reduce the electricity bill by one-third in a short time and remove VAT on food, healthcare, and school supplies,” Dissanayake stated, emphasizing the need for urgent economic relief for citizens.
