Several Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) MPs have embarked on a mission to put party chairman Sarath Fonseka on the right track, SJB National Organizer Tissa Attanayake said today.
“A group of MPs have already spoken to Field Marshal Fonseka and there are other steps that have to be taken to put him on the right track. We are sure that the Field Marshal will finally fall on the right track like MP Rajitha Senaratne,” he said.
“There are guidelines to be followed when making public statements when you belong to a political party. There are things which one should take up at the working committee meeting. We cannot come up with our personal ideologies whenever we want,” Attanayake said, referring to several public statements made by Fonseka lately.
Also he said the party will not change the original decision to field Opposition Leader Sajith Premadasa as the Presidential candidate, when responding to a question raised by a journalist as to whether Fonseka had wanted the candidacy. (Yohan Perera)
