    Could be an international conspiracy!

    Punchi Putha Thursday, 27 January 2011 02:53 PM

    May be the work of a third party?

    Tarzan Thursday, 27 January 2011 01:23 PM

    Sorry Pal, most of the members in the UNP and UPFA are uneducated.

    Calistus Jayatilleke Thursday, 27 January 2011 12:35 PM

    Coming events cast their shadows: precursor for the UPFA to be rejected by the people this time.

    hemantha Thursday, 27 January 2011 12:17 PM

    Possibility of cancelling ALL nominations submitted. (Law provides for this) and may call fresh nominations.... possible....

    sltk2004 Thursday, 27 January 2011 11:49 AM

    May be this is a Western conspiracy?

    Chandimani Thursday, 27 January 2011 11:49 AM

    No ! It is not OPPOSITION Sabotage. This is a Sabotaj done by the Rival people inside the government. At the correct time, they leave to their Mother-party. They wait till govt party dialuted !!!

    N.B.M.Arachchi Thursday, 27 January 2011 11:12 AM

    I fear those officials who rejected the nomination papers would become traitors or conspirators against the democratic rpublic of SL.

    robinson Thursday, 27 January 2011 11:06 AM

    Why UPFA could not comply with election rules. The person who finalized should take the responsibility. That person is so irresponsible, and should be dealt with.

    karuna Thursday, 27 January 2011 11:05 AM
