Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) Leader Sajith Premadasa today alleged that he had got threatening calls saying a plan is afoot to remove him from the Opposition Leader’s post if he fails to agree for an interim government.
“I am getting telephone calls 24 hours a day asking me to join an interim government together with other parties in Parliament. There was a threatening call among these. One caller told me that there is a plan to remove me from the opposition leader’s post. I am prepared to resign from the opposition leader’s post as I always have the backing and the sympathy of the common people,” he told a gathering in Mirigama.
“No one from SJB will join an interim government,” he added.
“A political teledrama was unveiled yesterday where there were conflicts within the government parliamentary group. The President had informed the group that he had not asked the Prime Minister to resign. MP Dallas Alahaperuma has said he had associated with Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa for a long time, to which the President had replied saying Mr. Rajapaksa became his brother long before Mr. Alahaperuma started associating with him. The government has become a pickle. Now they are requesting us to join an interim government. We are against joining an interim government,” he also said. (Yohan Perera)

Are you not “ Hoodwinking “ the people. Where is the NCM ? You need not walk on the road with protesters, but you can do the needful to tople the government , while inside the parliament. You are not doing it why?
C Fernando Saturday, 30 April 2022 01:01 PM
You are displaying utter ignorance! A minimum number of votes is required to win a NCM. Only a fool would submit an NCM without having the required number of votes. And how does one get those votes when the kaputa is buying over corrupt MPs at the going price of 2 million dollars??

Your lying to get sympathy from the public. You cannot be a president because no backbone. You will be another puppet at presidential Palace. All you guys go home
Prof. Bernard Benjamin Saturday, 30 April 2022 01:19 PM
I bet you will be our next Prime Minister not President as you will abolish the 20th Amendment and implement the 19th Amendment for sure that sounds well.
Martin Milton Saturday, 30 April 2022 02:05 PM
No point in screaming in vain....he should go and make Hon FM Sarath Fonseka head of SJB. Everyone knows he is NOT leadership quality. MM
Rathinam Navaratnam, Saturday, 30 April 2022 02:05 PM
Very poor of those who threatened SJB Leader. It is unfortunate Sri Lankans in general do not know the meaning of "respecting others".
Jamos Saturday, 30 April 2022 05:42 PM
Interim government that includes opposition is essential in this time of unprecedented crisis. Those who do not step forward to help the country and put party politics behind are nothing but TRAITORS. The people will never forget - Premadasa as well as others should remember that.
Martin Milton Sunday, 01 May 2022 04:02 PM
The very best person to come out and take over leadership in Sri Lanka at this moment is Hon Field marshal Sarath Fonseka. Kindly propose his name as leader NOW! MM
