Former president Mahinda Rajapaksa, former minister Basil Rajapaksa and former defence Secretary Gotabaya Rajapaksa attended an event held in Colombo on Wednesday, March 16.

The event was held in Colombo this evening to commemorate Professor Jagath Wickremesinghe. While leaving the premises following the conclusion of the event, journalists questioned former president Mahinda Rajapaksa on the meeting which is scheduled to be held on Thursday.

Former president Mahinda Rajapaksa noted that he did not get a letter from the General Secretary on the inquiries to be held.

When questions were raised that disciplinary action will be taken against those attending the rally, he noted that he will be getting on the stage since attending the meeting is also somewhat  of a discipline as well.
