The UNF-led alliance will reform Sri Lanka completely if its candidate wins the presidential election and then wins general election securing a sufficient majority, Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe said.

Mr. Wickremesinghe who was answering questions posed by some journalists at the Udayan office on Wednesday said a future UNF-led alliance would bring constitutional, social and economic reforms if it secures power in future elections.

He was responding to the question as to whether a future UNF-led government would continue constitutional reforms.

“It is the people and parliament which has the final say on constitutional reforms,” Mr. Wickremesinghe added.

He also said all parties who have voiced their opinions on constitutional reforms have agreed on the devolution of power but the aim should be devolving power without dividing the nation. (Yohan Perera)

Yes, we have seen your reforms so far, essentially it is about gradually selling our assets to India.

Don't make false promises, you did not maintain any promise you made last time. How can we trust you when you have no record.

Ronnie Bugger Friday, 18 October 2019 10:09 AM

Yeah, sure. Import mega rouges like Mahendran and you wish will come true.

It looks as if Ranil with his cronies are planning to hold sway without allowing Sajith to govern in the way Sajith wants. This should not be allowed at any rate.
