In a significant development in Sri Lankan political circles, Members of Parliament from the “Nidahasa Janatha Sabha” and the “Samagi Jana Sandanaya” led by the SJB (Samagi Jana Balawegaya) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). This agreement reflects a strategic move towards cooperation and collaboration between the two political factions.

The MPs involved in this MOU signing include:
Prof. G L Peiris
Dilan Perera
Dr. Nalaka Godahewa
Dr. Upul Galappaththi
Wasantha Yapa Bandara
K P S Kumarasiri
These members of parliament, who had previously broken away from the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP), chose to sit independently in Parliament under the banner of the Nidahasa Janatha Sabhawa.

The “Nidahasa Janatha Sabha” is a political faction led by these respected MPs. On the other hand, the “Samagi Jana Sandanaya,” under the leadership of the SJB, represents a significant opposition force in the Sri Lankan political landscape.

The formation of the ‘Samagi Jana Sandhanaya’ alliance signifies a new chapter in Sri Lankan politics, consolidating the strengths and resources of the SJB and the Nidahasa Janatha Sabhawa. This united front is poised to play a pivotal role as the main opposition force, advocating for policies that serve the interests of the people and addressing pressing issues facing the nation.

The signing of this MOU signals a mutual understanding and agreement on various political matters and strategies between the two groups. It highlights a shared vision for addressing key issues facing the nation and working towards common goals for the betterment of Sri Lanka and its people.

This alliance could have significant implications for the political landscape of Sri Lanka, potentially shaping the course of policies, reforms, and future electoral strategies. As these two factions join forces, their combined efforts and resources could lead to a stronger political presence and a more unified voice in Sri Lankan governance and decision-making.
