The Colombo Destrict UNP Parlimenterian is a UNP heavyweight and faced severe problems when Chandrika was the President. He is one of the prominent UNP parlimenterians who critisize the anti democratic regime of Mahinda.
It was reported earlier that Ranjith Maddumma Bandara and Mangala Samaraweera too had an idea of contesting fot that post.

Sri Ranga falls in Percy's baby Trap - Gift for deceiving UNP Votes !
MP J Sri Ranga ( who contested from UNP then joined hands with dictators Regime after he was paid well initially ) is disgruntled that the Leader P Mahinda after asking him to contest the local government elections in Manthai East in the Mullaitivu District under the Citizen's Front had on the last minute got Minister Rishard Bathiudeen to hand over nominations from the UPFA and that the President had secretly supported Bathiudeen.
The ITAK polled 1,223 votes (55.54%) and won six seats in the Manthai East Pradeshiya Sabha while Bathiudeen's UPFA team polled 920 votes (41.78%) and secured three seats.
While Sri Ranga's funny Citizen's Front that contested the elections due to the President's request had polled only mare 56 (2.54%) votes with huge public embarassment.
J Sri Ranga betrayed UNP Voters who elected him to Parliment from Nuwara Eliya (Central provice) and this might be the first gift given to him by God for his act of betrayal.
Normally P Mahinda will get maximum out of any individual who joins with him and if he feels that he/she isno longer needed by him.. He will do his best to get rid of them...
Mangala Samaraweera and former CJ Sarath N Silva are some of the past examples....

Proposal to appoint War Hero, General Sarath Fonseka as the Vice Leader of the UNP ?
Ranil Wickremesinghe's fraction is exploring the possibility of proposing War Hero, General Sarath Fonseka's name as Vice Leader in Wickremesinghe's list of office bearers at the elections to choose the office bearers for the party and discussionss would be held within the next few days to get Fonseka to join the UNP, a senior parliamentarian from Wickramasinghe's fraction said.
The parliamentarian said that given the present situation, an election was inevitable to elect the office bearers to the party and that Wickremesinghe has already decided to contest for the party leadership. He said that the rest of Wickremesinghe's office bearers would be announced during the week.
However, one of General Fonseka's friends when inquired about the matter said that Fonseka has not made any decision about joining the UNP.
General Fonseka, Master Brain behing the ending of the 30 year war in Sri Lanka and former Common Opposition Presedential Candidate was sentenced to two and half year rigorous imprionsment by (real) traitor & dictator P. Mahinda. P. Mahinda now has a close friendship (and also offered portofolios in his regime) with (to) former LTTE terrorists Karunna, Pilleyan and Kumaran Pathmanathan

If JVP had contested in a coaltion with UNP, Oppostion would have won more local goverment bodies.Also if SLMC was with UNP, such a coalition would have also helped to gain some more Local Bodies as well.

UNP's Voter Percentage has gone up compared to last ruling regime biased general election.
Three other parties, SLMC, UCPF, National Congress and Independent Group have won one council each.

Higher Education Minister S.B. Dissanayake has decided to offer the tender of buying 25,000 computers for the use of university students to his funding partner, Casino Owner and UPFA MP, Thilanga Sumathipala.
The Secretary to the ministry Sunil Jayantha Navaratne has called for proposals on 10th March 2011. Technical specifications of computers mentioned in the call for tenders were prepared only to suit Lenova brand computers which are produced by a private company belong to Mr Thilanga Sumathipala.
Ministry sources say that many companies planned to apply for the tender were prevented the opportunity as a result.
Billionaire, Casino & Bookie Owner Thilanga Sumathipala has been the main funder for S.B Dissanayake while he was in the UNP as well as with the SLFP alliences. Extremely disappointed of Rajapaksa regimeĆ¢€™s politics, the pair is turning into similar tender irregularities to raise funds for a future political campaign against Rajapaksas, say political analysts.

Mahinda held hostage by evil Forces – Says UNP Vice President Imtiaz Bakeer Markar
UNP Vice President, Former parlimenterian Imtiaz Bakeer Markar said, it is vey clear that both USA President Barrack Obama and local President Mahinda Rajapakse have become captives of evil destructive forces in their own backyard. As President Obama who was presented with a golden opportunity to establish world peace and reconciliation did not seize it, so is the Local President Mahinda missed the opportunity which was brought to his doorstep to establish peace and reconciliation within his country after the war tha talsted for 30 Years. Bakeer Markar mentioned this speaking at a meeting held in Balapitiya electorate.
Opposition Parties Condemn Dirty Work done by Mahinda Abesundara - UNP / JVP
Vijitha Herath critisied Pro Government Journalist & Percy Mahinda's Presidential Advisor Mahinda Abesundara ( ,script writer) of Vimasumma Programme on ITN and said the leader of the Government including the Sports Minister should apologize to the cricketers


Opposition Parlimentarian Vijitha Herath addressing a media conference held at its Party Head Quarters further said that , “He is an Advisor to the President. This is a very serious statement. What is the evidence for such a match fixing allegation? The Government is always trying to claim or gain credit of the success of others. If the match was won by Lions, it is the same leaders who will festoon the players. We consider this as a very low slung statement by the Government which is incapable of bearing the loss. The Government always reacts in the same manner. If the prices of commodities increase they put the blame on floods. If it is decreased they acclaim the ‘Mahinda Chintanaya’.
The Leader of the country should make an elucidation to the masses with regard to this statement” said Mr Herath.
UNP too critisized this incident, MP Harshana Rajakarunna of Gampaha mentioned, if some people start believe on what Mahnida Abesundara said, their will be a risk on the lives of both Mahela Jayawardena as well as Thilan Samaraweera.
It is reported that Namal Rajapakse too was behind this mud sligging campaign against 2 Sri Lanka Middle Order batsmans with Percy Mahinda's Matara MP S Jayasuriya. Also now people are becoming aware of the real traitors of the motherland who are tarnishing the image of Sri Lanka & it's heroes.
Percy Mahinda & his Goverment goons sent Common Oppostion Presidential Candidate, True Winner of the pres. election, the war hero General Sarath Fonseka to jail for 2 1/2 years earlier.
Karu Jayasuriya must be made the interim leader, until Sajith takes over the leadership says Shiral Lakthileka
-The Sajith-Karu combination has given a great strength to the UNPers who are working towards a future victory - Shiral L
Oppostion main party UNP Western Provincial Councilor, Shiral Lakthileka addressing a public rally in Kadawatha on the 27th saturday said that Karu Jayasuriya should be appointed as the party's interim leader in order to re-build the party voter base and to re-unite it until Sajith Premadasa takes over the party leadership.
Shiral Lakthileka further said that if such a move is done, many problems faced by the party at present could be resolved with time and would bring unity to the party without having several fraction with in the party, which is the aspiration of every UNP member opposing the current administration headed by leader similar to a dictator.
Time is now ripen to defeat President Percy Mahinda's government which is misleading the public, anti-people, swollen headed and unable to understand the problems faced by the people every day. Dowbfall of Rajapakse regime could only be brought down by a people's struggle like those that took place in Tunisia, Egypt and in progress in Libya & several other Middle Eats Countries.
A free and fair election cannot be held as long as the 18th Amendment is implemented and a powerful executive presidency existed in the country. It would also be difficult to bring the disgruntled voters to cast their votes at elections.It is therefore a day dream to think that a change looked for by the people could be brought about at an election that is held under a government that works according to its agenda and misuse at its will sate resources and the Elections Department.
It is therefore important to build a people's leadership in the party that could get the love and confidence of the people and to give protection to the commitments made by the people. The Sajith-Karu combination that was formed for the local government election seems to be working in that direction whic is good for the party.
It is Sajith Premadasa's young and energetic leadership that has been accepted, loved and trusted by the people and party members.

Premadasa has given a great strength to our party candidates contesting against the government at the local government election by traveling to every small village.
The deputy leader together with the party secretary is traveling around the country in a bus. He is uplifting the party organizations that have fallen in various parts of the country using his long standing political experiences. His expertise, love and kindness has provided a great strength to the party activists.

The Sajith-Karu combination has given a great strength to the UNPers who are working towards a future victory. When Sajith Premadasa is working with great conviction to put the party back on the winning track, Karu Jayasuriya is working hard to manage the party affairs. This active relationship is essential for a future victory. Therefore, Karu Jayasuriya must be given the party's interim leadership to build the party base and unite it until Sajith Premadasa takes over the party leadership. If that happens, most of the problems faced by the party will be resolved with time. Party unity will also be safeguarded. That is the wish of the UNPers who are opposed to the government.
We Will organize a Libya type protests - Says Vijitha Herath
It is the responsibility of the political parties to organize a people’s struggle similar to other countries like Libya. The JVP will undertake this responsibility on behalf of the masses, JVP Propaganda Secretary Vijitha Herath said today in a press conference.
Most political analyst point out that if JVP can get the support of UNP & other minor parties for such a protest, it will be not imposible to do like what happend in Egypt & Tunisia, while in progress in Libya.
Currently the Country is ruled by President Percy Mahinda & his UPFA Coalition.

UNP UK Supporters Urge Ranil to leave like a gentlemen
The UNP party members residing in Britain, urged opposition leader Ranil Wickramasinghe to leave like a gentlemen without further destroying the party.
They further said that, though we are not well satisfied with the way the emerging young UNP leader from Hambanthotta is working, their is no other option other than him who can bring UNP to power.
Under Ranil Wickramasinghe, UNP had lost 2 Presidential Elections (99 to CBK, 2005 to MR), General Elections (2000, 2004, 2010), Several Provincial Councils & Local Goverments. A party which had over 45,000,000 votes not have lost over 15,000,000 of it
but he was able to make the economy stable & reduce Government debt while he was the Prime Minister from 2001-2003.

More & More Rules to Western Province - New ways to Increase Revenue !
According to a daily news paper, the Government is going to charge Rs 5000 ($50) from vehicle owners if they park on pavements. When we spoke to several shop owners regarding this new issue, most of them mentioned that "If we can't park in front of our own shop. we will stop doing business here. We will move to some other place or even to Maldives where we can park our vehicles as well as customers in front of our shops! ". Also people who will not use pedestrian crossing will be produce in court.
It is learnt that these are going to be imposed in order to increase government revenue as UPFA Government's internal & external revenue has gone down in recent past. Also the funds forcefully taken from KP too has gone down (Some believe that his funds were used in 2010 Presidential Election too).
According to another reliable source, Ceylon Petroleum Corporation (CPC) is definitly going to be sold to cover up the expendicture of the Goverment which consist of a massive Cabinet.
Already the ruling party had sold several valuable land at a cheap rate to overseas firms & individuals to start casinos & hotels.
We will have to wait and see what will happen after the upcoming election...

Massive Protest by JVP Demanding the release of abducted General Sarath Fonseka while Satyagraha from UNP Kotte Organizer
A massive protest was organized by the JVP was held in Colombo on 16th demanding the government to release General Sarath Fonseka who was abducted (illegally arrested) and is being detained without any charges at Nevy Headquarters.JVP Leader Somanwansha Amarasinghe,Anura Dissanayake and Lal Kanthe addressed the massive protest.This was the only rally (so far held) which was not attacked by either police or government thugs(may be regarding the massive number of protesters!)
Also their had being a Sathyagra in Kotte for the second day organized by UNP Kotte (New)Organizer Shiral Lakthilake.Wife of General Sarath Fonseka (Anoma Fonseka) too participated. She said that General Fonseka is not kept in a Luxurious place as some says and also said that the windows of the flat in which General is detained is closed by planks.She also said that if they hope that they can mentally depress and weaken her husband,they are sadly mistaken.
(Some of the picutres are taken from lankatruth.com)
Ranil Wickramasinghe a clean politician but the weakest party leader in Sri Lanka
In Sri Lanka,a political party leader should have a strong backbone when taking decisions but we don't see it from him since 1994.His party which is the biggest party in Sri Lanka had being now in opposition for nearly 14 years since then.So many party stalwarts had crossed over to government as most of them had understood that under Mr.Ranil Wickramasinghe's leadership, they cannot come in to power (most of the cross overs may not be clean but cannot help under the way Sri Lankan politics is done).
He had appointed as well as favor only politicians who are not a threat to him as well as most organizers are weak political wise in their respective areas.His deputy too is a weak character (who crossed over to the government and then came back!).He does not take any advice from politicians who are well favored and/or respected by common people.
A political party should have politicians who can talk well for the masses at various situations,but now UNP has only very few like that as most had crossed over.Dayasiri Jayasekara,Sajith Premadasa,Buddika Pathirana (Recently emerged) and Ranjan Ramanayake (Recently emerged) and few more.So who knows what will happen for some of them after upcoming General Election?.
Also if he had managed to hold power some how in 2003 current situation wouldn't have occured.Also he had a chance to take power in 2004 election too as UPFA had only 105(+1 EPDP) seats which was a minority and if he had taken the support of JHU.Now the UNP voter base had got eroded to a vast level which is at a situation where recovery is some what very difficult.
UNP had won only 2 elections since 1994,So continuous loosing of UNP is not something for us to wonder..! It will continue as long as he is the leader....!
Sri Lanka General Election 2010 Prediction / Likely Results

But results can get change to some extent or even completely other way around,if something happen to General SF.
Note: SLMC will get above no of seats in areas where it will contest along.Also above results are including all districts as well as National List Seats.If JVP contest along they will get between 1 -5 seats which has to be deducted from UNF/NDF.

(UNF is a coalition formed by UNP while PA & UPFA are coalitions of SLFP and some other parties-The Ruling party had a majority support but then President Chandrika Kumaranathunga dissolved the parliament using her executive presidential powers which she later said it was a big mistake done by her in her life).

General Sarath Fonseka's Abduction by Military Police and the Protest against it
According to many sources it is a abduction.He was the main opposition candidate who was said to have won the Presidential Election 2010 in Sri Lanka but some Ruling Party members had altered the results it seems, in order for their ruling party candidate to further be in power.This has become thrue with the abduction of General Sarath Fonseka.
This is against both common law and military law acoording to well known lawyers in Sri Lanka.Also the funny side is that,if he is taken due to military law he should be kept at some Army building but now he is abducted and kept in a Nevy building.So this is thruly done in order to restrict General S F from signing the election pettion to be filed and to keep him away from contesting the upcoming General Election.
The most respected Mallwatte thero and Asgiri thero condemed the incident and criticized the responsible people for the abduction.
Also the massive protest against the abduction of General Sarath Fonseka was attacked by thugs of government infront of the police(they were protecting the thugs).When the protesters some how managed to chase away the around 30 -50 thugs who came,the police started to chase the protesters in which the police were unsuccessfull as the protesters did not leave the place.
Also their had being protests in all over the country and protests held in Ampara, Kaluthara , Galle,Matara and some other places had being attacked with tear gas by police(is this the so called democracy?).
Following pictures shows the protest against the abduction of General Sarath Fonseka (Second picture shows Anoma Fonseka[Wife of General SF] speaking to media personels. Somawansha Amarasinghe[Leader of JVP] , Kabir Hasheem(UNP), Thissa Attanayake(UNP), Ravi Karunanayake (UNP) and Dayasiri Jayasekara are also in the picture)



Following pictures shows how thugs attacked and how police protected them from protesters.


So is this the begining for another period of bloodshed like in 1971 and 1988?Will wait and see.
