The Tamil National Alliance (TNA) will hold talks with the presidential candidate of Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) Gotabaya Rajapaksa shortly, a party official said today.
Jaffna district TNA parliamentarian M.A.Sumanthiran told Daily Mirror yesterday that Mr. Rajapaksa had sought a meeting with him. Gotabhaya Rajapaksa will be accompanied by Opposition Leader Mahinda Rajapaksa and SLPP National Organizer Basil Rajapaksa.
Mr. Sumanthiran said the TNA had held talks with UNP candidate Sajith Premadasa and briefed him about the party’s position.
We will inform him of our position. We want the constitution-making process to be taken forward. Also, we have a number of other issues such as the release of land and those held under the Prevention of Terrorism Act. We will look at Mr. Premadasa’s election manifesto and decide,” he said.

Why is Gota wanting to talk to Sumanthiran? I hope he will NOT ASK for an alliance.
Sumanthiran woould HANG Gota for War CRimes if he could.
HE TRIED to HANG Gota and to CONTROL the Govt of Sri Lanka through the ever PLAINT UNP, but FAILED to HANG Gota!
Why talk to him? Better off withpout Sumanthiran, and his TNA cronies!

@Ananda-USA
Why talk to him? Well, the answer is there. Read it.
“Jaffna district TNA parliamentarian M.A.Sumanthiran told Daily Mirror yesterday that Mr. Rajapaksa had sought a meeting with him.”
“Mr. Rajapaksa had sought a meeting with him.”
A Lankan song is very apt to describe this. “Oba pem karanaa obe kumari matada adare kiya thibe.”

@Dilrook,
I did not say Sumanthiran wanted to talk to Gota!
I asked WHY Gota wants to talk to Sumanthiran.
I had READ IT!
Don’t misrepresent what I said!

Elsewhere Ananda said “…they are with GOTA & the TRUE PATRIOTS!”.
Will he repeat the same when TNA agree to support GOTA ?
Firends, TRUE patriots will never support Kunu Panchskandas.
They will support Motherlanaka.

Please listen to this excellent speech by Rev. Malcom

We have to tie them down to the ladder. This is exactly what I am stressing. Sad to say I have never noticed any of our venerable monks saying this , in the Dhammadeepa.
