Deputy minister Ajith. Perera says he is ready to resign even from his parliamentary seat if COPE chairman Sunil Handunnetti proves his claim that he had walked out of the committee’s meeting in protest over pressure exerted on the auditor general.

Handunnetti has clearly stated so in his minutes, he added.
