Addressing a press conference at the Moneragala Community Hall on Tuesday, June 16, Leader of the JVP, Anura Kumara Dissanayake says that his party is ready to face any electoral system.

Leader of the JVP, Anura Kumara Dissanayake stated that the presence of the JVP in parliament causes a nuisance as they cannot steal, nor  obtain an illegal liquor licenses from the government.

He went on to note that since the JVP are vocal about all wrong-doings and reveal such happenings to the public, there are individuals who attempt to prevent the JVP from entering parliament through an electoral system.

He added that the existence of the JVP does not depend on the elections but instead depends on the people’s decision and choice.

He further stated that they are prepared for any election system – even if the current system is not good a better one will be formulated. Their objective is to speak of one matter and put forward another.
