Leader of Janasetha Peramuna Battaramulle Seelarathana Thera invited MPs who were sacked from the central committee of Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP) to join his party, local media reported.

If the party is not ready to give the place they deserve, there is always a place in the Janasetha Peramuna, he told those five MPs with the invitation.

MPs Bandula Gunawardena, S.M. Chandrasena, Salinda Dissanayake, T.B. Ekanayake and Rohitha Abeygunawardena were removed from SLFP Central Committee on April 11.

Speaking to a local newspaper on Monday, S.M Chamdrasena told that the expelled MPs are expecting to take legal action of the matter.

Meanwhile, SLFP  National Organizer Susil Premajayantha recently stated that the expulsion of five MPs from the party Central Committee is most likely to be revoked. However, five new appointments were made to the Central Committee on Monday.
