Finance State Minister Eran Wickremeratne says that all positions of the United National party (UNP) including party leadership should be elected through a vote.

Wickremeratne made this statement while addressing media at Bandaranaike International Airport (BIA) today (28). 

“The party received a message from our voters that it should undergo major reforms from the results of recently concluded Local Government elections. Top chairs in the party such as Leader, Deputy Leader and Vice Leader should be elected through an election.” he said.

Speaking further, Wickremeratne said that there is a question as to whether UNP voters accept the new members appointed for key posts and other office-bearer positions in line with party reformation process.
