Provincial Council Deputy Minister Wadiwel Suresh, provincial councilors Hirunika Premachandra, Nishantha Sri Warnasinghe and Nirosha Athukorala were removed from the UPFA today, General Secretary Susil Premajayantha said.

He said the letters informing the cancellation of their membership would be delivered to Elections Commissioner Mahinda Deshapriya.

“In keeping with the laws and ethics of the UPFA, Mr. Warnasinghe, Ms. Athukorala and Ms. Premachandra are no longer qualified to remain as provincial councillors,” he said adding that the vacancies would be filled by the next in line on the preferential list.

    In the new Sri Lanka constitution. A member of any party wishing to cross over to the other side,must first resign from his present party and then after a period of one year (cooling period) join the party one wishes. This should stop frogs leaping.
