Speaking at a rally in Elpitiya, he said if he had genuine concern for the country and its people, he could have fulfilled most of the pledges he gives now.
Dissanayake said after realizing that he is going to lose power, he has started to give election promises (Gundu).
"When government employees demanded a pay hike a few months ago, he refused to do so citing shortage of funds. How can he increase salaries now. He also said that he will write off all crop loans. It is a lie. It is possible. But, a proper analysis must be done first. He is now giving impractical and confusing promises due to fear of losing," he said.
He said people could not be deceived by such false promises as they had been hearing such promises at every election.
