The Sri Lanka Muslim Congress (SLMC) has decided to contest the local government elections in the Eastern Province on its own.

Party secretary general Nizam Kariyappar said the candidates cash deposits will be made tomorrow and added that his party was holding discussions with the United People's Freedom Alliance (UPFA) with the view to form an alliance to contest the elections to other LG bodies. (Dayaseeli Liyanage)

Why can't they contest all alone, in other areas, as well, if they got a vote base without riding on others? SLMC shall show their strength, if they have any.

Oh, well, this is not the first time we've hearing this. They are simply behaving like a ship that has lost its bearing and is moving at a tangent until the winds change its direction.
