As some news websites reported that Samagi Jana Balawegaya ( SJB) and Jathika Jana Balawegaya ( JJB) will get on one stage to protest against the possible postponement of the local government polls, SJB General Secretary Ranjith Madduma Bandara denied such reports. 

Some news websites reported that the two parties had decided to get onto a common platform to fight against the postponement of local government polls. It was also reported that Maddduma Bandara had a phone conversation with JJB Leader Anura Kumara Dissanayake and that it had been agreed that the two parties will protest and will have a common rally. 

" I never had any conversation with Anura Kumara Dissanayake and neither have we got into any agreement," Maddduma Bandara told Daily Mirror. (Yohan Perera)

    We are hundred percent sure that Anura Kumara would never discuss any common front with SJB against the government for postponing the provincial council election.

    You two can be on the same stage or toilet together, it is no concern where and how you get together. Just get together and force the election.

    Whether you, both, seem a parties to be competed in an election, but will never win any elections held in Sri Lanka.

    Please stop fighting with each other, SJB and JJB. Join hands for the common cause and fight against this corrupt government. You can do politics later.

    All parties including the SJB, JJB, TNA should all get together to force the Government to conduct the elections. All you guys and the entire country is clamouring for elections, so why not get on the same platform and force the issue instead of pulling in different directions. Forget party politics for now.

    Constitutionally fixed election dates for Presidential/Parliamentary may be considered in a new constitutions like in US. Children can't afford even for a chewing gum, forget about bracelets. Only the richest of the rich shall survive seems the policy imported until 2048. SJB chatter boxing won't help people anyway.
