Former Panadura Mayor Nandana Gunatilaka said today he would contest the upcoming general election on the UNP ticket.

He contested for the presidency in 1994 on the JVP ticket but later quit the JVP together with Wimal Weerawansa to form the NFF.

In 2010, Mr. Gunatilaka quit the NFF and joined the SLFP and in 2011 contested the elections to the Panadura Urban Council as the mayoral candidate. (Piyumi Fonseka and Siri Mahabellana)

Remember he was from Faculty of Agriculture!

Nandana started his political career as a UNper. He is the first politician to stood against the corrupted, mighty Mahinda. He has a right to support a party which take the country forward. He did a marvelous service to Panadura as the Mayor. He sacrifices his all privileges for a just society. He is honest and educated person. He jumped fro the government to opposition not the vice verse. he is an asset to Ranil. His political knowledge is marvelous. I wish him all the best.

What a transmigration - from extreme socialism to capitalism. That is why it said that it is usual to be a socialist from 18-30 and become a capitalist at 30. Few become life time socalists except Vasu

Hay Gunatillake, you cannot expect Millions from RW as you got from MR. You can be his office peon.

Say something Saturday, 14 March 2015 09:40 AM

Bubble Banda Friday, 13 March 2015 10:01 PM

Nandana how could we trust you? You are good in High Jump.

Desmond Jeromme Friday, 13 March 2015 10:02 PM

What is the guarantee this man will join JVP after joining UNP.

Horri Jimonis Friday, 13 March 2015 10:03 PM

You are a policy-less creature man. Get lost.

Vijith Pieterz Friday, 13 March 2015 10:08 PM

Hay look, you cannot work under RW, he is very honest.

He has some stuff to be in the parliament than most of the present bunch.

Palitha Friday, 13 March 2015 10:24 PM

Contesting is his right. Defeating him is our right.

gayan Sunday, 15 March 2015 08:20 AM

At least he is open about it, unlike Anura dissanayake the under cover UNP man in the JVP.

Vijith Pieterz Friday, 13 March 2015 10:31 PM

He is a shameless idiot who jumps like a frog.

Eds Saturday, 14 March 2015 11:14 AM

A man of no principle, whatsoever!

TONY Friday, 13 March 2015 11:36 PM
