- Aug 31, 2015

Diplomatic reports confirm that India has proposed the Sri Lankan President to give the opposition leader post to the leader of the Tamil National Alliance R. Sampanthan in the new parliament which is convening tomorrow the 1st.

 

President Maithripala today 31st said that the choosing of the opposition leader task should be done by the opposition. Many people misunderstood this statement anticipating that the president has allowed the pro Mahinda faction to choose the opposition leader to their wish.

 

However the factual opposition of the new parliament which is convening tomorrow would be the Tamil National Alliance and the Janatha Vimukthi Peramuana. The Tamil national Alliance which has the majority representatives would have their rights to choose the opposition leader.

 

International political analysts say there would be very productive results found in a difficult journey of the current national government heading towards a true reconciliation.
