Jayasundara submitted a lengthy resignation letter last month following increasing calls for him to step down from his position, by the cabinet of ministers who had lodged complaints against him, stating he was unavailable to discuss matters of government. The resignation letter was immediately accepted by President Rajapaksa but the letter had made some explosive revelations of corruption by some high rankers.
