Anuradhapura district Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) MP Uddika Premaratne, who resigned from his Parliamentary seat recently, said he was expecting a work visa in Canada.

Premaratne, who is currently in Canada, told a local YouTube channel that he had not sought political asylum in Canada as reported and that he was expecting a work visa.

He also said he sent his resignation while being in Canada.

"I have not learned anything from politics. Only what I earned from acting is left with me now,” he said.
