Speaking to reporters at his official residence in Kumara Park, he said, "Appointments to boards and corporations were finalised only after collecting the opinions of all. The Chief Minister, General Secretary, and I had thoroughly discussed the choices. Many leaders had even given letters recommending certain people for the positions, but we can't make the letters public," he said.
"Everyone has the aspiration and ambition for position and power. The tenure of these positions is only for two years, and there will be fresh appointments once again after two years. We will give opportunities to fresh faces then. Party leaders and workers have to manage the responsibilities assigned by the party. There is no need to worry; the hard-working party workers will be rewarded on the next list," he noted.

Party workers will be given opportunities in hospital committees, bagar hukum committees, ashraya committees, and municipalities.”
