Leader of the United National Party (UNP) Ranil Wickramasingha adressed the media a short while ago,
stating that the UNP will continue its fight for democracy and media rights. The opposition leader put the UNP's
recent loss at the General Elections down to the lack of faith the general public had in the electoral system and
not on his leadership, stating that he will step down when the time is right. Pics by Varuna Wanniarachchi
