Mahinda concedes defeat: parliament to be 

dissolved on 8th or earlier!

nr ms excluPresident Mahinda Rajapaksa is frightened by the rising people’s power against him, and sources close to him are reporting the acts he is planning to do in his rage of defeat.
Accordingly, parliament is to be dissolved on January 08 or earlier. The president is intending that that will prevent Maithripala Sirisena from gaining a 2/3 parliamentary majority.
Dissolution of parliament is also aimed at sabotaging the implementation of Maithripala Sirisena’s election theme of ‘a new country in 100 days.’
The president also hoping that a dissolved parliament will prevent Maithripala Sirisena and Chandrika Kumaratunga from gaining control of the SLFP. He is to take this decision by disregarding the pension entitlement of MPs in the present parliament, who are eligible to draw a pension only if their term extends up to end-April 2015. He also wants to build a strong opposition and fight back.
