The police have blocked the protest march led by UNP Leader Ranil Wickramasingha from proceeding towards Parliament.

The group was blocked at Ethul Kotte which led to the UNP MPs having to return back to the UNP Headquarters Sirikotha.

Senior UNP MPs Sajith Premadasa, Dayasiri Jayasekara, Rosy Senanayaka, Ranjan Ramanayaka, Mangala Samaraweera and Karu Jayasuriya participated in the protest along with Wickramasingha. (MB)

So that's the end of that. One token protest done for the record.

What a joke. If you are protesting by your heart you should have ignored all blockings and marched towards the parliament. Ranil you don't have that kind of leadership and your time is up.

Wasting time in the road. Should be in the parliament participating in the debate. That is the most effective way to show your oppose.

how can we expect the UNP is to fight for more democracy in Sri Lanka, when they do not have democratic practices within the party itself?
