May 15, Colombo (LNW): The Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) has asserted that President Ranil Wickremesinghe has yet to provide a definitive response to their request for a General Election preceding the Presidential Election.
According to the SLPP, Founder of the party Basil Rajapaksa engaged in discussions with the President on Monday (13), specifically addressing this issue. The dialogue marked the seventh round of talks aimed at resolving existing disputes between the two parties.
During these discussions, the SLPP reiterated its position on the nation’s development trajectory, emphasizing the need for clarity and alignment in political agendas.
In a bid to mobilize its electoral base, the SLPP announced plans to commence its election campaign on May 26th, starting from the Kala Wewa constituency in Anuradhapura. The campaign will subsequently extend to other constituencies across the country.
The SLPP’s stance reflects a persistent push for electoral transparency and timeliness, highlighting the ongoing dialogue between political entities amidst the evolving landscape of Sri Lankan politics.
