Colombo (LNW): In a significant outcome, the Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) has emerged victorious in the election of the Ruwanwella Various Services Cooperative Society.
The election, held on December 24, resulted in the appointment of all nine board members from the SJB group.
Notably, groups affiliated with other political parties did not secure any board memberships.
Traditionally, the Ruwanwella Various Services Cooperative Society has been under the governance of representatives from the Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP), the Podujana Eksath Peramuna, the United People’s Freedom Alliance (UPFA), or the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) since 1994.
The recent victory by the SJB marks a significant shift in the cooperative society’s leadership dynamics.
