President Maithripala Sirisena has dedicated a lot for the unity of the Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP), Special Projects Minister Sarath Amuniugama said.
“A few people in the Joint Opposition (JO) are however of the opinion that the party does not need this unity as they work to their personal agendas,” the Minister said.
The Minister was speaking after making the election deposits for the Thumpane Pradeshiya Sabha in the Galagedara electorate recently.
“People know was responsible for the creation of a new party while damaging the unity of the SLFP,” he said.
Minister Amunugama further said the latest census has revealed that most party supporters who worked with the JO are now rallying round the SLFP.
The Central Committee of the SLFP had decided to offer positions to the JO members if they joined the party. But, it wasn’t worked out since certain persons of the JO are against the party’s unity.
