Pivithuru Hela Urumaya General Secretary Udaya Gammanpila said that Minister of Regional Development Field Marshal Sarath Fonseka did not have the right to speak on former President Mahinda Rajapaksa's security.

MP Dinesh Gunawardena questioned Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe about the reduction of security for Mahinda Rajapaksa, and the Prime Minister replied. At the end of his reply, he invited Sarath Fonseka to speak, Gammanpila said on Facebook.

What the Prime Minister should have done is to ask the subject minister to speak, Gammanpila said further.

The Joint Opposition MPs had started to protest and the brawl started when UPFA MP Prasanna Ranaweera was attacked by Deputy Minister Palitha Thewarapperuma, Gammanpila said.
