UPFA Kurunegala District candidate Salinda Dissanayake today said their team would run around Parliament carrying the Mace if the UPFA won the Parliamentary elections but former President Mahinda Rajapaksa was not appointed Prime Minister.

Mr. Dissanayke expressed these views at a UPFA election rally in Polpithigama where Mr. Rajapaksa was also present.

The former President is contesting from Kurunegala District under the betel leaf symbol of the UPFA. However, the party had not named a Prime Ministerial candidate. (Indika Sampath)
