NPP stages massive protest against government (PHOTOS)

Colombo (LNW): The National People’s Power (NPP) today (18) conducted a protest march and rally in Nugegoda with the theme “Let’s drive away crazy, corrupt regime that sells country & oppresses masses!

The event aimed to express opposition to what the organisers perceive as a government that imposes increased taxes, raises commodity prices and electricity bills, sells national resources, and enacts repressive decrees.

Commencing near Delkanda market, the march concluded at the Ananda Samarakoon Open Air Theatre in Nugegoda, where a rally ensued thereafter.

Several prominent leaders of the National People’s Power addressed the gathering, and a substantial turnout was observed during the event.
