SLPP Prez candidate: ‘Fielded or supported candidate must accept party policies’

The Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (SLPP) has yet to decide on the candidate for the upcoming Presidential Election. They stated that the chosen candidate must align with the party's policies.
Meanwhile, the United National Party (UNP) Deputy Leader, Ruwan Wijewardene, announced that President and UNP Leader Ranil Wickremesinghe would lead a grand alliance for the upcoming Presidential and Parliamentary Elections.
The SLPP has yet to discuss the Presidential Election, as it is more than a year away. They will support a candidate who accepts their policies, attributed to former President and Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa's progress in the country.
Wickremesinghe became Prime Minister amid protests against then-President Gotabaya Rajapaksa and later became President with SLPP's majority support.
