They are both popular people love them. They are good to work under someone's supervision but not as leaders. Ranjan is good to come into parliament as a minister but Dilshans credibility is another question.

Ranjan has no civic rights yet. Is Dilshan Sri Lankan/Australian/Dual citizen? Don't make a fool of yourselves and yout careers. What exactly do the two of you hope to achieve? Politics in SL is already a joke.

**Everybody Wants To Rule The World** by English pop rock band 'Tears for Fears.' Imagine Ranjan as the President and Dilshan as the Prime Minister of the country! :):):)

At this rate. Dilshan will break the record of GL Peiris for switching political camps!

We are living in a fantasy world where everyone forms a new party. This is crazy.

Dilshan is a citizen of Australia. So can he contest and come to parliament????

Australian citizen is the national organiser of the party.So that itself is a disqualification. Right folks?

This is good. If contested under a mainstream party buffaloes of this land would certainly send this con artist to the parliament.

One is a dual citizen while other does not have any civil rights. If such party is allowed, EC should be sued for allowing such an illegal thing.

Both appear to have been rejected by NPP. So they form their own party. If they utter sense then they will have people watching and listening

Blow to NPP Wednesday, 09 October 2024 02:19 PM

This will break votes for Malimawa because Ranjan too is coming for removing corruption card. In fact Ranjan was to original leader to pick up this tag before the NPP.NPP will be very concerned.

Opportunistic as it was with Vijaya. Ask yourselves as to what you have done for the country and what you stand for. If you really want to make a difference, first go get involved in social work and prove yourselves. All you have done so far has been earning money for yourselves. You have no convictions (sorry for the pun). Stop wasting taxpayer money. by lengthening the ballot paper. Politics should be social work, but not an enterprise. Is this to write off expenses against income tax?

Being a popular actor or actress and/or being a cricketer DOES NOT qualify a person to be a politician! When will Sri Lankans ever learn??!!

There goes my respect for Dilshan and Ranjan in their respective fields. Sanath Jayasuriya learnt a good lesson and he now repents going into politics. He is now flourishing as a coach and serving the nation in the best way he could.
