Date:

Colombo (LNW): In a recent interview with the “Desaya” newspaper, MP Dhammika Perera expressed his willingness to contest in the forthcoming presidential polls.

However, he pointed out that he would only enter the race if he is assured of securing at least 51 per cent of the total votes.

MP Perera, who is a lawmaker of the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) the Ruling Party, highlighted that endorsement from the major parties would significantly bolster his presidential campaign.

When queried about his political alignment for the upcoming presidential run, he asserted that he is already a MP of the SLPP.
