Three leading monks in Sri Lanka have warned the 20th Amendment to the Constitution leads to the creation of a president who would be able to control the Executive in an arbitrary manner and bring the Judiciary and Legislature under his control.

The letter comes days after the Amarapura-Ramanna Samagri Maha Sangha Sabha opposed the 20th amendment, citing it will pave the way for an “undeveloped tribal society”.

“…the Sangha Sabha decided to make a strong emphasis to the government that they should not pass the proposed 20th amendment,” the council said in a statement on Monday adding the 20th amendment will severely affect freedom of thought and action.
