JVP betraying murdered cadres

In Sri Lanka's political affairs the forthcoming Presidential Election will be recorded in history as the instance in which a leader of a political party had destroyed that party by his own conduct. That was what the ordinary people say about the UNP today, Youth Affairs Minister Pavithra Wanniarachchi said yesterday at a UPFA rally at Ratnapura District.

The JVP that swore they would not have any truck with the UNP that killed thousands of their members were now betraying those deceased members who sacrificed their lives for the party.

The forces behind these two parties were foreign and local ones that had espoused the separatist terrorist forces that hated President Mahinda Rajapaksa for having given political leadership to the Armed Forces and defeated the terrorists, she also said.

Minister Wanniarachchi noted today Fonseka who was highly respected by the people had become a puppet in the hands of the international political foes of Sri Lanka and was only nodding his head to whatever the UNP-JVP combination said, she noted.
