The Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP) today decided to support President Gotabaya Rajapaksa at the upcoming parliamentary election to secure a two-thirds majority in parliament, SLFP Spokesman MP Weerakumara Dissanayake said.
Speaking to Daily Mirror, the MP said this decision was made at the SLFP Central Committee meeting held today with the unanimous consent of the SLFP members.
