During a media briefing convened in Kurunegala by the SLFP activists, a request was made from former minister Basil Rajapaksa.

Former Chairman of the Wariyapola Pradeshiya Sabha, Ananda Jayalath stated that Basil Rajapaksa should go back to America, without attempting to destroy SLFP like what occurred to Mahinda Rajapaksa.

Chief Minister of the North Western Province, Dharmasiri Dassanayake stated that they remember how people like Dinesh Gunewardena, Vidura Wickremanayake, Wimal Weerawansa and Udaya Gammanpila took decisions without thinking about the entire party.

He added that he will not be brought into the party since he brought defeat to Mahinda Rajapaksa. Explaining further, he noted that a huge issue was created by him where vengeance was taken from the poor party members and innocent Pradeshiya Sabha members.
