Who is telling the truth? – Karu denies Ranil’s claim
United National Party (UNP) leader Ranil Wickremesinghe has never asked MP Karu Jayasuriya to work towards uniting the party verbally or through a written document, sources close to Jayasuriya said yesterday.
“Wickremesinghe only started telling this after the latest crisis occurred. Before he left for England he had never told Jayasuriya to work towards uniting the party. Even now the only written document, stating that, was a statement Wickremesinghe issued last Thursday from London,” he said.
The statement issued by Wickremesinghe is one of UNP Leader’s tricks to buy time, the source claimed.
On July 28 Jayasuriya responded positively to a request made by Co-Deputy Leader Sajith Premadasa to take over the leadership if a majority agreed to end the divisions within the party. However, Wickremesinghe, who was in Britain attending a meeting of the Commonwealth Parliamentarians’ Association said he had assigned Deputy Leader Karu Jayasuriya to unite the party as asked for by a majority of the members.

United National Party (UNP)= Divided National Party
Guys it is high time to change the name as DNP!
As long as Ranil is there Mahinda is comfortable!
Mr Jayasooriya was unable to manage the electricity noard when he was the minister. Sri Lanka experienced the longest power cuts during his tenure.
Now he is attempting to grab the leadership of the UNP. The darkness that engulfs democracy in Sri Lanka will continue if Mr J succeeds in his power grab.
Mr. Karu Jayasuriya
excuse me, give me a break.

Please have a good look at this man’s picture; look into his eyes; there’s dishonesty embedded in his soul.
Mr Karu J joined the Blues Party to provide support to the Blue Brothers in concluding the genocidal war in 2008/09.
Was this done at the best of his beloved leader?
Under the Leader’s instructions, Mr Wijedasa Rajapaksa provided support to the Blue Brothers when the Darusman Report was published. Mr WR wrote a letter of protest to the UNSG. His efforts did not bear any fruit.
Mr RW portrays himself as a shrewd leader of the calibre of the Late JRJ.
He will soon end up with egg on his face unless he halts his manipulative tendencies. The “smarty” Mr KJ has got ants in his pants.
All of them’re lying & just providing TOPICS from comic book for public..!
