Member of Parliament Dullas Alahapperuma said members of his parliamentary group hold ideas on forming an alliance with the Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB).  

Alahapperuma was refering to media reports which said some of his group members are to join the SJB shortly. It was reported that MPs G. L. Pieris, Dilan Perera, Nalaka Godahewa and Channa Jayasumana are to join the SJB.   

“Members of our group hold different ideas. This is natural when a party works in a democratic manner. There are divisions in our group but there is no confrontation among us,” he told Daily Mirror.  

It was reported that there are divisions in other opposition groups as well.   

Meanwhile SJB MP Harsha de Silva who was responding to a question raised by journalists at a press conference said only those who are clean and accept his party’s policies should be welcomed.
