“We
seek your mandate to permit the members of Parliament you elect to
function simultaneously as a Constituent Assembly to draft, adopt and
operate a new Constitution. This Constitution will declare Ceylon to be a
free, sovereign and independent Republic pledged to realise the
objectives of a socialist democracy; and it will also secure fundamental
rights and freedoms to all citizens.”
Manifesto of the United Front of the SLFP, LSSP and the CP (1970)
