The Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) will launch its “Gamin Gamata” (Village to Village) rallies, starting next week, the party’s National Organiser and Member of Parliament Namal Rajapaksa announced yesterday.
He made the announcement while addressing the media following a discussion held at the Parliament complex with the party’s National Convener D.V. Chanaka and MP Chanaka Madugoda.
MP Rajapaksa said that strong public resentment is mounting against the current government, accusing it of attempting to rule the country through suppression.
He noted that constituency organisers have been making urgent requests to visit villages directly to educate the public on the government’s failures.
He further highlighted that inflation in the country has risen to 8%, pointing out that the government lacks a clear plan to address the situation.
Additionally, Namal Rajapaksa mentioned that the campaign will focus on informing the public about issues surrounding coal containers, as well as actions by the government, that he claimed, are troubling the Maha Sangha and the Buddhist community.
