Colombo, Dec 16 (Daily Mirror) - The Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) appointed its new office bearers today but left the post of national organizer vacant this time with a request for Basil Rajapaksa to take over at one point, a party official said.

The party’s executive committee that met at the official residence of leader Mahinda Rajapaksa took these decisions.

MP Sagara Kariyawasam was appointed General Secretary once again. Besides , MP Pavitra Wanniarachchi was appointed as the new treasurer of the party.

Ven. Uthurawala Dammaratana Thera was reappointed as the chairman of the party.

Meanwhile, the SLPP also appointed members to its politburo, where deputy national organizers' posts were also created this time. The party is expected to pick a Tamil and Muslim to these posts later.

All in vain “labor of love!!!” The Rajapaksas and their party, the SLPP, are rightly doomed to political insignificance in the future!!! With their robber mentality, human rights violations and political stupidity, the Rajapaksas have put Sri Lanka in the worst condition since 1948, inflicted lasting pain and suffering on the people and inflicted the most serious international damage on the country!!! After the election, the Rajapaksas will only continue to try to act politically as “string pullers” in the background, or rather underground! As power political figures, with a view to the future, they will no longer play a significant role in public life, similar to the SLPP in the party spectrum!!!

The Sugathadasa Indoor Stadium had little Pohottuwa supporters at their convention. The majority were hired from surrounding areas with various incentives and goodies offered.

SLPP or Pohottuwa is so bankrupt that it only has a crook and a dual citizen as the National organizer.
