This political leader demonstrates advanced analytical and speculative skills.
These abilities are not normally found amongst political leaders in the country.
He is indeed, a tower of strength to the UPFA.
He should be allocated a strategic role in assisting the de-facto leader of the SLPP in determining the SLPP Presidential Candidate at the upcoming SLPP convention of 11 Aug 2019.
Excellent comments by David B.
Hon Piyal Nishantha is an exceptional politician with significant analytic and strategic skills and thought precesses
He is so far ahead of SB, GLP, Kehelmala Rambukwella, Wimal Weerawansa, Kumara Welgama, Venerable Athuraliye Rathana , Mahindananda Aluthgamage and Namal Rajapaksa who are key advisors to the de-facto SLPP leader, MR, who has been handed over the sole responsibilty of nominating the SLPP Presidential candidate on 11 Aug 2019.
Hon Piyal Nishantha should the KEY advisor to SLPP leadership on political matters.
Hope the R family listen and act on his supreme advice.
