Need UNP support for a swift election – Chandima

It is the United National Party (UNP) that has the opportunity to make way to establish a strong government, says MP Chandima Weerakkody.

He points out that the support of the UNP is needed for swift elections.

Parliamentarian Weerakkody requests the UNP to grant the two-thirds majority needed to dissolve the parliament.

This would be the best opportunity to prevent further rejection of the UNP parliamentarians, according to him.
