FILE - In this Friday, Jan. 3, 2020, file photo, Sri Lankan President Gotabaya Rajapaksa leaves after addressing parliament during the ceremonial inauguration of the session, in Colombo, Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka’s government in early September has proposed changes to the constitution to aggrandize powers of the president, that will allow him hold key ministries and appoint officials to key positions, powers that were taken away by  a reformist government elected in 2015. The draft of the 20th Amendment to the  constitution will allow Rajapaksa to appoint top  judges, police chief, members of the public service, elections, bribery and  human rights commissions at his discretion.
