Former Member of Parliament Thalatha Athukorala has voiced strong criticism regarding the evolving political landscape in Sri Lanka. Thalatha Athukorala questioned whether the current political leadership is being directed by Ranil Rajapaksa or Sajith Rajapaksa, amidst growing confusion about their roles.

She pointedly criticized Sajith Premadasa for allegedly distancing himself from his foundational political principles. She highlighted recent reports of a potential alliance between Sajith and Namal Rajapaksa, and accused Sajith of abandoning his roots by opting out of Sirasa's Satana program in favor of collaborating with Hiru.

She also defended Ranil Wickramasinghe, asserting that he has consistently sought the consent of the majority and warned that errors in forthcoming political decisions could have severe and enduring repercussions.
