Heavy traffic has been reported in Nugegoda and its vicinity due to congestion caused by a rally organised by four ally parties of the UPFA at the Ananda Samarakoon Theatre in Nugegoda.

Police said the Nugegoda - Nawala Road has been temporarily closed due to the gathering.

MPs Wimal Weerawansa, Vasudeva Nanayakkara and Dinesh Gunawardane along with Provincial Councillor Udaya Gammanpila organized the rally to promote former President Mahinda Rajapaksa as UPFA Prime Ministerial candidate at the general elections.


A number of UPFA MPs including T.B. Ekanayake, C.B. Rratnayake, Mahinda Yapa Abeywardena, Vidura Wickremenayake and Jayantha Ketagoda had arrived for the rally.


Western Province Chief Minister Prasanna Ranatunga and Council Members including Upali Kodikara and Roger Seneviratne had also attended.

    Those who lead UPFA to defeat MR is now trying to bury him soon. If he is suitable for the PM post now why people rejected him a month ago. This is only for mislead people for few peoples personal gains.
