Anura Kumara Dissanayake, the NPP Presidential candidate, called for a shift away from traditional politics during a recent rally, highlighting the need for a new direction for Sri Lanka. He criticized current leaders Ranil Wickremesinghe and Sajith Premadasa for their lack of meaningful political solutions.

Anura accuse Ranil of misleading the public with false claims of friendship, likening it to an unreciprocated school crush. He suggested that Ranil Wickremesinghe's gestures were a tactic to ease concerns about the NPP's anticipated success in the upcoming election.

AKD pledged to ensure a thorough investigation into the Bond Scam and hold those responsible accountable.
