Protests are currently taking place across the country demanding the resignation of Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa. A continuous protest is also being held in front of the Temple Trees where the Prime Minister resides and it has been named as Maina Go Gama.
Mahinda Rajapaksa is on a visit to Anuradhapura today amidst nationwide protests. He had come to pay homage to the Sri Maha Bodhi this morning and the people had protested against the Prime Minister who had come out of Uda Maluwa.
The protesters urged the Prime Minister to listen to the demands of the people and go home.
The Prime Minister left the venue with members of the security forces and then proceeded to pay homage to the Ruwanweli Seya and the Mirisawetiya Dagaba. It is reported that the people also opposed the Prime Minister at those venues too.
