The Tamil National Alliance (TNA) should be banned as a political party, Pivithuru Hela Urumaya leader Udaya Gammanpila says.
He expressed this view while speaking at a press conference held in Colombo on Monday.
“The TNA should be banned as it extended support to the defeated LTTE”
He also pointed out similar happened after the end of the World War II as Adolf Hitler’s Nazi party was banned in 1945 and Arab Socialist Ba’ath Party was too banned in Iraq after the death of Saddam Hussein in 2003.
Gammanpila also pointed out the TNA had acted as the political wing of the LTTE that time. “In order to restore the democracy of the country, the TNA should be banned,”
Gammanpila said the TNA could only secure election wins now since all the masterminds behind the other political parties including of the EPDP and the UNP were assassinated by the Tamil Tiger rebels.
