JVP Propaganda Secretary Vijitha Hearth said that the JVP had no issues with Somawansa Amarasinghe and pointed out that it was Mr. Amarainsghe who wanted to leave the party since 2002 while the party objected to his quitting.

Mr. Herath had sat down at the head table with Mr. Amarasinghe but was asked to leave. 

“Comrade, please leave without creating more issues,” he told Mr. Herath who obliged by moving away.  

He said the party was ready to resolve any issues with Mr. Amarainsghe.

When asked by journalists whether this was a political move by former President Mahinda Rajapaksa, he said the former president was not capable of breaking any political party now. (YP)
