The 'Janabalaya Kolambata', protest march organized by the Joint Opposition (JO) scheduled to be held on Wednesday (5) in Colombo, would be carried out in a peaceful way, MP Namal Rajapaksa said today.
Addressing a news briefing, he said the protest march had been organized in a way that no harm would be caused neither by the general public nor to public property.
“The Government is spreading rumours that the JO protest would bring inconvenience and trouble to the general public. It is obvious that the Government is scared of this protest because they know that this protest march would become a challenge to the Government,” the MP said.
"That’s why they are in a move to sabotage this protest march,” the MP added.
He said the protest campaign mainly aimed at toppling the Government and pressing it to go for the General Election.
Meanwhile, MP Kanchana Wijesekera said that anybody could join hands with them irrespective of party affiliations.
“This is a protest for all those who are against this Government and aspiring to have a new Government. Hence, there is no restriction or barrier to joining in this protest,” MP Wijesekera said. (Sheain Fernandopulle)

Good move to give some looted money to back to people .Do every week until you spend all looted money.
TONY Monday, 03 September 2018 10:33 PM
IT IS COMMONSENSE THAT PROTESTS DO CAUSE UNWARRANTED INCONVENIENCE TO THE PUBLIC AND THOSE STAGING THE PROTEST FIGHT AGAINST THE LAW ENFORCING AUTHORITIES. WE HAVE SEEN ALMOST ALL PROTESTS ENDING UP IN THIS SCENARIO.

How this can be organized without having prior approval from the local police station? Where is the law and order of the country?
