Claiming that Saradiyel’s son is not Saradiyel, Parliamentarian Diana Gamage said Opposition Leader Sajith Premadasa would not be able to perform just as his father.   

She told Parliament that former President Ranasinghe Premadasa sought IMF assistance and served the people.

  
“Former President Premadasa sought IMF assistance and served the people and the country with IMF funds. But, you keep in mind that Saradiyel is Saradiyel. Saradiyel’s son is not Saradiyel and Saradiyel’s father is also not Saradiyel. So, I don’t think you can perform just as your father,” she said.
