He took a correct decision. Any fool can see that council is a just try to blind people.

Looks like Sajith is not interested in steering the UNP to victory if he is not the leader.

If Sajith leaves, it will help UNP to resolve 90% of their problems.

What Sajith has done is he lead the way for other up and coming leaders to go and for him to stay .He had done more damage to the party than Ranil.

You should remember how your father worked with JR and waited for his turn. If you work hard to win the party gradually you will get your place one day. don't be hasty you are still too young for the post.

Sajith I hope you or one of your allies will read the comments made by the readers to this article. I hope and pray that you will have courage to make the right decision at this crucial moment where the country is at really dangerous situation. Only very few people will understand the dangerous part of that as most of Sri Lankans are illiterate or selfish. So for the sake of the country please do the right thing you will become the President of this country for sure.

You are nobody without UNP and you cannot claim special status because your father was a President. We still remember the quality of governance during your your father's days of Presidency.

Go to hell Sajith ... you are just following ............. instructions. UNP in this situation not because of Ranil .... it's purely because of you. True UNPers knows this very well. So wen the time comes these UNPers will decide

This guy should remember people vote for him not for what he has done to people but because of what his father did to poor people of our country. I guess he asking for too much. Before he become a leader he should be a good follower too.

He wont be too much different from the present government if he comes to power

What a cry baby!
I used to have high hopes that Sajith will grow into a good leader and statesman, but i was wrong. I have been disappointed to see his recent behaviour.... he is simply displaying his immaturity.

Good move. Only the name change and all the culprit are there including the Tissa. All these buguers are rejected by people. Karu also must resigne. Good luck to UNP.

Well done and it is time to leave the UNP. You will do better along.

Like Anura in SLFP the day he gets out (and stops making troubles within the part) of the part it will unite and start wining

This man should learn to pull the weight of the party!! He criticizes the UNP more than the government does! and is the main reason for the erosion of votes!

I would rather vote for MR or SF than sajith...

Well, at least you seems to have taken a firm decision at last.
Try and rally more support, look at it more rationally and for the greater good of Sri Lanka and its beloved people, not the party, that will no doubt take you to the level people aspire you to be. If not gov will be there for the rest of our lives, and we shouldn't be complaining........

Dear Sajith,
The Bhikku Council is not the UNP. What right has the Bhikkus in that council to dictate terms to the UNP.? You cannot expect leadership to be showered on you. Be patient young man.
