Non-Cabinet Minister for Public Distribution and Economic Reforms Dr. Harsha de Silva said that the announcement of the presidential candidate of the UNP-led Democratic National will take place at the 73rd Anniversary of United National Party on September 6.

He said it would coincide with the 73rd anniversary of the UNP.

He also said that a final decision would be taken after discussing with the senior members of the party after the return of Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe from the Maldives on Wednesday.

According to him, the election campaign would start successfully after declaring officially the most suitable candidate who can win the forthcoming presidential election at the 73rd anniversary.

With the composition of UNP leader and PM, Ranil Wickremesinghe and Deputy Leader Sajith Premadasa and also with the participation of parliamentarians, provincial councillors and the representatives of the local government bodies, these decisions will be taken, he added. (Nimala Kodithuwakku)

Good. Your leader is aimless and winless. While the rest of the political parties has started campaigning he is galavanting. The first victory for the UNP to get rid of this lame duck. Put a Cheetah to win.

the candidate is irrelevant. Ive been a life long UNPer. But the day you accepted back Ravi K back to your fold, was the day I decided never to go green ever again. That's a promise I made to myself. you Gentlemen should have known better.

I agree with the earlier comment that if people such as Ravi K is allowed in the party, that itself is perfect proof that this party has no governance or ethics. Sorry, no voting for UNP again.
