Pivithuru Hela Urumaya (PHU) General Secretary Udaya Gammanpila said today they hoped to get former President Mahinda Rajapaksa to participate in the election campaign after the General Election was declared.

Responding to a question asked during a news conference at the Abhayaramaya in Narahenpita, Mr. Gammanpila said there was no need to invite Mr. Rajapaksa to take part in daily news conferences.

“However, we hope to bring the former President to our stage no sooner the General Election was announced,” he said.

Meanwhile, Democratic Left Front (DLF) Leader Vasudeva Nanayakkara said Mr. Rajapaksa was aware of their political activities. (Lahiru Pothmulla)

Not only a scoundrel, but does he care for Sri Lanka, above petty party politics? These 4 lost causes use MR as their prop as without him theyare lost mice.

People love MR without considering the political party. We also loved him as our former president of Sri Lanka even though we voted for Maithri. With the activities of these people who do not have a political future, will tarnish the good name of MR.

Whether MR will have time to do election campaign amidst answering various legal questions on corruptions and frauds during his rule. In the coming months various investigations are likely to get more active. Udaya
