Days after Field Marshal Sarath Fonseka’s statement, claiming that he was offered the UNP organiser post in the Kelaniya electorate, UNP activists in the Kelaniya Electorate held a media discussion on Saturday (26) in Kelaniya.

They stressed the need of the present organiser of the electorate, Bevan Perara to continue in the position as he had helped to win Kelaniya at the last general election amidst numerous threats.

At the meeting led by the former member (UNP) of the Kelaniya Pradeshiya Sabha, Siri Dissanayake, many party activists expressed their displeasure over the attempts to name Sarath Fonseka as the Kelaniya Organiser.

The present organiser rendered a considerable service collecting the party supporters throughout the electorate and led them all towards the victory at the General Election, they said and supported his candidature in the next election. (Lal S. Kumara)

why is it difficult for Bevan Perera to work with Sarath Fonseka? join and work for betterment of the country instead of having your own agenda

Honestly, the General's talents and capability is not fully exploited. He should be put in charge of - Internal Security if the President is serious about gangland warfare, drugs, rape and barbarism (skinning of birds alive). Give it to him and in three months there will be nothing to report in the media.

Ranil seriousely needs to get his act to understand proper stratagies for the party why can't SF to be nominated to Ambalangoda where UNP is still weak in South.

If this is correct UNP IS assured of 2000 votes at the next elections , from Kelaniya.

Are you serious? He is an ex-Army man and he should stay that way. Internal security must be a matter for well trained civil police authorities. Get real pal.

SF in UNP, Bull in china shop. SF in Jafna would be a better idea.
