The Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna has requested President Ranil Wickremesinghe to refrain from interfering with the independence and identity of the party.
The matter was discussed when the President met with the leaders of the political camps that form the government at the President’s Office on Wednesday (14).
Sources confirm that the President had agreed to the SLPP’s request.
The SLPP, however, extended their fullest support to the President and his government.
It was also decided to hold a monthly meeting between the President and political parties that form the government to discuss issues that arise in governance.
Representatives of the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna, United National Party, Ceylon Worker’s Congress and other parties attended Wednesday’s meeting with the President.
