Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa was in for a surprise when he was hooted at by a group of protestors during a visit to Anuradhapura today morning.
The protestors who had gathered close to the Temple since morning, hooted at the Prime Minister when his motorcade was leaving the premises.
The protestors had called on the Prime Minister and his family to step down and even went to the extent of asking if the Prime Minister was wearing his clothes.
The protestors were prevented from going close to the motorcade by the police who were deployed outside.
Rajapaksa is likely to step down from his post this week after he was asked to leave by President Gotabaya Rajapaksa last Friday.
It is still unsure what the political developments will be thereafter if Mahinda Rajapaksa steps down.
