Deputy Minister of Finance and Planning Dr. Sarath Amunugama stated at a meeting yesterday that former Health Minister Maithripala Sirisena is riding two horses. One of them is the SLFP horse and the other is the UNP horse, he added, inquiring if it was possible to ride both horses at the same time.

Speaking further, Amunugama said that Sirisena had never voiced his concerns and grievances while in government. If he had they could have discussed these matters, he said.

Amunugama also inquired if Sirisena has embarked on the new journey to make Opposition Leader Ranil Wickremesinghe the Prime Minister of the country adding that if so there is no point in his campaign.
