What Susil says is not true – Arjuna
The letter stating that former President Mahinda Rajapaksa was given nomination from UPFA has been signed only by Mr. Susil Premajayanth but President Maithripala Sirisena has not signed the letter states Minister Arjuna Ranatunga making an entry in his ‘Facebook’ account.
The letter sent to the media is a copy and despite the original of the letter was sent to President Maithripala Sirisena, he refused to sign it states Minister Ranatunga.
He states stalwarts of the SLFP have not agreed to give nomination to Mahinda Rajapaksa and the truth will be revealed soon.
However, the silence maintained by President Maithripala Sirisena regarding the incident and the propaganda carried out regarding Mahinda Rajapaksa getting nomination from the UPFA has perturbed many in the country.
