Colombo, Jan. 2 (Daily Mirror)- The upcoming elections in the country would create the most intense battle ever in the Sri Lankan political arena which would be a do-or-die game for the National People’s Power (NPP), its leader Anura Kumara Dissanayake said yesterday.
Speaking at a seminar in Colombo, he said the political camps that are in the offing and political divisions which are created are not ordinary in nature.
Dissanayake said if the NPP lost the political battle this time, it would lead the country and the people into further misery and the NPP’s victory would direct the country into a path with new aspirations.
He said the government was making plans to expedite the process of selling off state property while the NPP was discussing the ideology of creating a new economic journey against the failed economic and political policies adopted for a long time by the governments so far.
He said NPP was also discussing about making plans to combat social crimes and change political culture which is full of corruption thereby creating a new political culture in the country.
