Jan 30, Colombo: Commissioner General of Rehabilitation, Major General Daya Ratnayake has been appointed as the Chief of Staff of the Sri Lanka Army effective immediately.
The current Chief of Staff, Major General Mendaka P. Samarasinghe has been transferred to the Joint Operations Headquarters (JOH) which coordinates the operations of the Sri Lanka Army with other two armed forces.
Defence analysts however say more changes in the military ranks can be expected due to the politicization of the Army following the former military chief general Sarath Fonseka's entry into politics.
The appointment of Major General Samarasinghe who is believed to be loyal to General Fonseka, to the JOH is one such change, they pointed out.
