Time to say bye bye SF
wickrama Friday, 08 October 2010 12:09 PM
JVP should not accept the vacant MP post to mark their protest for removing SF.
bernard Friday, 08 October 2010 04:30 PM
They should hold a by-election and let the people decide on whom they want. That is the democratic way.
citizen1 Friday, 08 October 2010 06:13 PM
You make a good point. All this strange behaviour is due to panic and paranoia. 100% insecurity.
citizen1 Friday, 08 October 2010 06:16 PM
Ofcourse they should, but that will happen in our dreams unfortunately! 'People' have become an inconvenience to the current bunch.
Ara Friday, 08 October 2010 09:39 PM
Democracy- Are you joking? Are you talking about Sri Lanka?
JAMES Friday, 08 October 2010 10:44 PM
HOW ABOUT BOGGOLAS who lost the election, to confuse the government
Smart Aleck Friday, 08 October 2010 11:08 PM
Does the Court Martial decision disqualify The General from sitting in Parliament? What is the real legal position?
Roshan DW Saturday, 09 October 2010 02:55 AM
Thats a great idea.
Shabdeen Friday, 08 October 2010 11:34 AM
Yes they even left the country fearing in case jilmart did not work.

TO JAYA- WILL THE PRESENT GOVT & MR SURVIVE FOR 03 YEARS ?
Nandimithra Saturday, 09 October 2010 03:21 PM
Election Comm only does things for MR & Govt. Not what he should do constitutionally. He is a puppet.
Sena Saturday, 09 October 2010 04:09 PM
He is in Prison and the hero is gone!!!
Sepali Saturday, 09 October 2010 04:10 PM

He will resign allowing AF in ..so on and so forth.
Nalin Pradeep Friday, 08 October 2010 10:16 AM
All government offiicials are rush to remove General from the Parliament. Now these professionals converted to puppets. Don't you realy feel shy to wear ties ?????Because real gentlemen only should wear ties..
sf Friday, 08 October 2010 10:23 AM
We need the General... We need our hero...
Roshan Friday, 08 October 2010 10:27 AM
The only mistake SF did was that he contested the presidential Election. The actual result of the elction has made the Govt to panic.
indika Friday, 08 October 2010 10:31 AM
What SF, now JVP wont bother about him. Now they have their own MP thanks to SF.
Saradial Friday, 08 October 2010 10:33 AM
Can we trust this guy? won't he jump to Government?
malkanthi Friday, 08 October 2010 10:40 AM
Why are you guys talking ill about JVP, they have not desertered SF or his party?? unlike the UNPers!
shovini Friday, 08 October 2010 10:13 AM
Unacceptable. General Sarath Fonseka should be released immediately. He was elected by the people of this country.
lishan Friday, 08 October 2010 10:42 AM
This is like a "Surangana Katha"

no fasting protests because 'lemon puff' is made of wheat flour.
Concerned Friday, 08 October 2010 10:47 AM
Must it not be the duty of the DNA to suggest Nipuna's name first, rather than the Elections Commissioner?
Bu Friday, 08 October 2010 11:04 AM
KP should be appointed......
suran Friday, 08 October 2010 11:07 AM
It is MR's speciality use people and cast them off.
Hafiz Friday, 08 October 2010 11:09 AM
I doubt Lakshman or any others who follow will take oaths despite Election Chief has done his routine constitutional duties.
