May 19, Colombo (LNW): In a notable political development, the Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) and the United National Party (UNP) have reached a preliminary consensus on cooperating in local government bodies where opposition majorities have been secured.
This agreement signals a strategic alignment between the two parties in a bid to consolidate influence at the grassroots level.
The joint decision was announced this morning (19) in a formal statement issued by SJB General Secretary Ranjith Madduma Bandara and his UNP counterpart, Thalatha Athukorala.
