UNP Deputy Leader and MP Sajith Premadasa today said he is ready to contest next Presidential polls if the present UNP leader Ranil Wickremasinghe does not contest as the UNP candidate.

Speaking at the party convention today, MP Premadasa stated he is of the firm belief that none other than the party leadership should contest next Presidential polls representing the party. “If the present leader does not wish to contest under any circumstance, I wish to make this an opportunity to announce my willingness to contest as the Presidential candidate for UNP while providing leadership for the party as well.” (LP)
