Deputy Minister Wasantha Aluvihare said today that President Maithripala Sirisena has assured that the SLFP faction backing him would support the UNP after its election victory.

He said the new parliament could not be dissolved for four-and-half years and therefore Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe would continue to hold the office for the next five years. (Kanchana Kumara)
