Former Minister Mervyn Silva today said that he regretted his decision to leave the United National Party (UNP) upon an invitation extended by ex-president Chandrika Kumaratunga.

He said he would have embarked on a fine journey with Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe if he hadn’t left the UNP.

He also said he was one of the people who played a key role in electing the ‘Yahapalanaya’ Government but today he was left with nothing.

How very true. He was one of the people who contributed to the downfall of Mahinda and energence of Yahapalanaya.There are four other personalities that contributed to Mahinda's down fall and emergence of Yahapalanaya;;
