Former Minister Navin Dissanayake has been appointed as the Vice President of the United National Party (UNP).
The appointment was made by UNP leader and former President Ranil Wickremesinghe during the UNP Working Committee meeting held today.
Dissanayake, a senior politician, has held several key positions in government, including Minister of Sports, Tourism, and Plantation Industries, as well as Governor of the Sabaragamuwa Province.
His appointment is seen as a move to strengthen the party’s leadership and prepare for upcoming political challenges, particularly in the wake of shifting alliances and electoral strategies ahead of the next general election.
