The presidential candidate of the ‘Sarvajana Balaya’ alliance Dilith Jayaweera emphasized his commitment to nationalist politics, while asserting that their alliance’s approach represents ‘the politics of heroism’ and will mark the beginning of what he described as ‘real politics’ in Sri Lanka.
“It seems that most political leaders are against nationalism. We are the true political camp that represents nationalism. We will pursue nationalist politics in Sri Lanka; this is the politics of heroism. The real politics in Sri Lanka will begin when we enter the political arena”, he added.
Meanwhile, addressing the “Dilith Gamata” constituency rally in support of candidate Dilith Jayaweera which was held in Kesbewa, Jayaweera said “all the main presidential candidates have issued manifestos, but not a single statement within them provides meaningful changes to your lives.”
“They continue to engage in politics that deceive you”, he added.
Commenting further, the ‘Sarvajana Balaya’ presidential candidate added: “President Ranil Wickremesinghe, who claims to have taken over leadership because others refused to accept responsibility, has increased gas prices and electricity tariffs fourfold.”
“Gas consumption has decreased by 40%. If you vote for the current administration, this third-world country will descend into further turmoil”, Jayaweera warned.
