Shantha Bandara dismissed from all SLFP titles

Date:

Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP) Kurunegala District MP Shantha Bandara has been dismissed from all party titles vested in him.

The decision has been taken in response to Bandara’s acceptance of the State Ministry of Agriculture in violation of the SLFP’s decision to serve independently despite being a government stakeholder.

Meanwhile, a protest was held in front of the SLFP Head Office today (12).

Former President and SLFP Chairman Maithripala Sirisena was also in the Office at the time of the protest and a heated situation has arisen with his departure, reports said.

Party Secretary General Dayasiri Jayasekara has to intervene in calming down the situation.

The protesters described the SLFP as a cowardly party.
