TNA MP M. Sumanthiran congratulated NPP Presidential candidate Anura Kumara Dissanayake as he closes in on victory in the 2024 Presidential Election.

"Congratulations @anuradisanayake for an impressive win, achieved without recourse to racial or religious chauvinism. Our thanks to the Tamil People in the North and East who voted for @sajithpremadasa rejecting others on #ITAK advice and showed the difference in the electoral map," the TNA MP wrote on his X account.

Thanks, or Congratulations is not enough Sumanthiran, now you must join AKD and work with him and hereafter talk only about Tamils not North/East Tamils only, look into the plight of Up-country and Colombo Tamils.

MP Sumanthiran(TNA) is not trying to please AKD by sending congratulatory message as AKD, searching for genuine politicians, knows the capabilities of MP Sumanthiran . He will not break ranks with TNA and join JVP like what the Sinhala

The TNA should have supported him from the inception. Particularly when he offered the Tamil people support and recognition. At least I hope sense will prevail and the TNA will back him at the General Election. The country needs change inside out. The Tamils need change inside out.

We are very thrilled to hear the success of AKD. He will be inducted as the 9th executive president of Srilanka by this evening. Thus AKD should be overly concerned about the north and east whilst scrutinising the number of votes being obtained by him from the districts like Jaffna Wanni Batticaloa and Trincomalli Further he has to work very closely along with the TNA in order to make the livelihood of the people uplifted

Sumanthiran, an ETTAPPAN according to Tamil Historical Story, messaged the X that Jaffnese have never voted for AKD, that reflects AKD has no obligation to please Nothern Tamils, during his tenure of at least six month until the US PLOT coming in to chase AKD, so was Gotabaya Rajapaksa shortly.

You are day dreaming Nobody can deter AKD he will implement his manifesto in a meaningful manner he will manoeuvre a formal plan to boost our economy. But it can’t be achieved overnight. Nobody can chase him away remember that he is not similar to GR

SJB blatantly accepted all the rogues jumping ship. It demonstrates nothing would have changed had they won the election. SL has to take a risk by not voting in descendants of families that have sucked our nation dry since independence.

Mr. Sumanthiran, you could have been natural instead of supporting any candidates, now the Tamils face an embarrassing situation.

It’s only a two state in one country will lift Sri Lanka up. It will bring peace and harmony to all. See UK has four states in one the United Kingdom. Let us change the name to Republic of United Sri Lanka or United Republic of Sri Lanka.

I never a fan of Marxism or Communism as I believe that the constitutional system and a skilful,educated leader is only extremely important for any country. I still believe that Ranil is the perfect candidate to lead the current Srilanka, but he has spoiled himself by linking and protecting some corrupted politicians. It was totally unnecessary.

AKD please take Mr Sumanthiram as one of your partners in uniting this nation. He is an intellectual, good man, reasonable and fair. And I am confident that he will help to integrate Tamil people as Sri Lankans and not remain as a minority ethic group. Er need their skills and acumen to rebuild this nation.
