Claim: Sri Lankan Central Bank Governor Nandalal Weerasinghe comments on inflation, subsidies, and interest rates.
Fact-check: No, the Sri Lankan central bank governor did not make these comments about inflation and subsidies - FACTLY
Verdict: there are no reports attributing the viral message about inflation and subsidies to the sri lankan central bank governor. also there are no reports attributing any similar comments in line with the claim to weerasinghe. in fact, after taking charge as the central bank governor, nandalal weerasinghe doubled the interest rates to curtail the rising inflation rates, negotiated with foreign countries and financial institutions like imf for loans, contrary to the arguments attributed to him. hence the claim made in the post is false.
