If attempts to create a separate state in Sri Lanka stopped, he would consider removing the Executive Presidential system, President Mahinda Rajapaksa addressing a public gathering in Kilinochchi said today.
"Some people are asking a separate state and divide the country. Even the Tamil National Alliance is supporting that concept. Some sections of the Tamil Diaspora are also trying to divide the country. If those parties stop demanding Eealm in Sri Lanka I will consider removing the Executive Presidency," he told a large number of people in Kilinochchi.
He said that there were reports recently that some members of the Diaspora in the UK, US and in the Europe had planned to create a separate state within Sri Lanka and even opposition Leader Ranil Wickremesinghe had met them.
About 20,000 title deeds of lands were distributed among the displaced people and reightgful owners in the north and jewelry, deposited in banks operated by the LTTE were also returned to 2,300 rightful owners.

Why SLFP promised to abolish executive presidency before 15th July 1995. Wasn't there any Elam threat then?

Executive Presidency should remain excluding clauses which give president unlimited power to do treat anyone he wants, special family treatment and all those. Executive Presidency should be there only to keep the sovereignty of the country.
