Why one should worry about Rajapaksa’s Prime Minister bid? And why ex-president fears FCID?
2015-05-11

The
acolytes of Mahinda Rajapaksa say the ex-President’s opponents are
preventing him from running as the Prime Ministerial candidate of the
Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP), because he can win. Mr. Rajapaksa also
repeated those claims at a meeting in Ratgama, saying that the two term
limit of the Presidency had been restored by the 19th Amendment in order
to deprive him from running for another term. These claims are too
simplistic. Of course, millions of people who voted out Mr. Rajapaksa do
not want to see him back in the office (Or running for it). However, it
is not because he will win, but because they fear what he would do
after winning (if ever).
