36 SLPP Members from Moneragala Support Ranil Wickremesinghe for Presidential Election

September 06, Colombo (LNW): Ranil Wickremesinghe, who is running as an independent candidate for the upcoming presidential election, will receive the support of 36 out of 41 former members of the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) from the three Pradeshiya Sabhas in the Moneragala electorate area: Siyambalanduwa, Badalkumbura, and Moneragala. This development was announced during a press conference held yesterday (5).

The meeting was attended by former Pradeshiya Sabha chairmen R.M. Ratnaweera (Moneragala), Samarasinghe Abeysekera (Badalkumbura), Deputy Chairman Nishshanka Punchimahattaya (Siyambalanduwa), Pradeep Wijeratne (Moneragala), and other SLPP members from these Pradeshiya Sabhas.

Former Moneragala Pradeshiya Sabha Chairman R.M. Ratnaweera stated that during a period of anarchy and bankruptcy, the leaders of the SLPP, represented by the “Pohottuwa” symbol, vacated their positions. At that time, Ranil Wickremesinghe took over leadership, fully aware of the obstacles and challenges facing the country.

Ratnaweera highlighted that Wickremesinghe was instrumental in restoring normalcy by resolving gas, fuel, and food shortages. He also acknowledged Basil Rajapaksa’s crucial role in supporting Wickremesinghe’s presidency by rallying Members of Parliament to vote for him.
