The Tamil National Alliance(TNA) has categorically stated that it will not support the dilution of the 19th Amendment to the Constitution.

The TNA strongly supported the 19th Amendment to the Constitution and Sampanthan, as a former Opposition Leader, unequivocally supported its implementation.

Sampanthan has also told the US Ambassador that his party is ready to negotiate meaningful power devolution with the new government.
