Here’s a clear summary of what Pubudu Jayagoda (Education Secretary of the Frontline Socialist Party / Socialist Front Party in Sri Lanka) has been saying about the coal import controversy and alleged fraud in Sri Lanka’s power sector:

🔎 Allegations About Coal Tender and Procurement

Jayagoda claims the coal tender process for supplying coal to the Norochcholai/Lakvijaya power plant was manipulated in a way that paved the way for serious corruption rather than fair, competitive procurement.

According to him, tender eligibility requirements were drastically altered — for example, the minimum reserve and quality criteria were reduced by about 90%, which meant some companies that otherwise wouldn’t qualify could win the tender.

He has alleged that the contract was awarded to a company (Trident Chemphar) with a controversial history, including prior procurement rule violations and money-laundering charges against its principals.

📉 Quality and Financial Loss Issues

Jayagoda has also criticised the quality of the coal shipments, saying the third shipment was substandard, generating less power than expected from the plant’s capacity.

He says the financial losses from this scandal are massive — equivalent to paying MPs’ pensions for decades — and have allegedly been under-reported or downplayed by authorities.

🛑 Calls for Accountability and Probe

Based on these concerns, Jayagoda has urged the government and the President to conduct an impartial investigation, recover any losses from those responsible, and not let the public bear the financial burden of alleged misconduct.

📌 Government Response

Officially, some government ministers have admitted that some coal supplied was of inferior quality, but they have denied any fraud or corruption in the tender process, saying procedures were followed and mechanisms exist to address losses.
