A Betel leaf party bigwig had abused the clout of his office to exclude a number of popular figures of the party from the Colombo district list in a bid to ensure his own election, they say.

Certain party stalwarts charge that this bigwig was responsible for the game plan that saw a former popular defence bigwig being denied party nomination to contest from the Colombo district list. They also express their surprise at the appearance of the names of at least three hardly known characters on this list.
This bigwig had to suffer loss of face when he got embroiled in a dispute over party nominations for the Gampaha district as well, they say.
