(Lanka-e-News- 17.July.2014, 5.30PM) After the SLFP ‘s senior member Mahinda Rajapakse took over reins as the leader of the SLFP party , the originality of the historic party had been bastardized by the Medamulana uncouth uneducated American citizen , and the UNP renegades who crossed over for the most unscrupulous and self seeking reasons. In order to combat the betrayal of the original party , the ‘organization to rescue the SLFP ‘ has been launched comprising seniors , oldest and active members of the party .Among the members of the organization are , former judges, senior lawyers , prominent personnel of the administrative sector, artistes, professionals , trade union leaders and many others. It is to be noted that since the SLFP was launched, during their reigns , never did the party take a racial or extremist stance. Moreover the party always respected the rule of law and promoted law and order in the motherland. It had been pointed out the original SLFP never robbed public funds nor acted in disrespect of the laws or legal Institutions. It did not
resort to IRC tactics , or conduct itself as terrorists or extremists . But now , the party has dropped to such deplorable and disgraceful levels that the party members are even fighting shy of calling themselves publicly as an SLFP er. It is in order to rescue the party from its present leadership which is betraying its members and wreaking havoc on the party and its originality , that the ‘organization to rescue the SLFP ‘ had been launched , a spokesman for the organization revealed to Lanka e news.
The spokesman for the ‘SLFP rescue organization ‘ told Lanka e news , his organization will not fear the American citizen who is holding the present SLFP party to ransom , nor be deterred or daunted by the political turncoats who somersaulted from the UNP . The organization will be launching on an extensive and intensive campaign to enlighten the public during the first week of August.
Upon being questioned by us about the Ministers and MPs of the government in the SLFP rescue organization , he said , there is n’t a single MP or Minister of the government who is against the organization.
When Lanka e news delved into the new development , it is learnt , the greater power of the SLFP headquarters at Darley road has shifted towards ‘SLFP rescue organization.'
A Darley road spokesman disclosed , though the Rajapakses who are getting ready for elections have asked for a list of party seniors from the SLFP headquarters, the Temple trees had still not been able to get that list ,which is a clear inference , to what extent the SLFP party has distanced itself from Temple trees .
When Lanka e news inside information division probed into this to ascertain the truth : according to Temple trees reporters , this is the stark truth .
Interestingly , Rajapakses were planning to have a function at Temple trees after inviting the old SLFP members , but as the old members did not show any response , the function had to be postponed on several occasions. Even at the meetings held Islandwide for party reforms , the party district leaders are openly castigating the Rajapakses face to face.
Recently , at the meeting of SLFP organizers held at Beruwala , when Minister Lakshman Yapa another turncoat who pole vaulted from the UNP began speaking against American funding for the projects to educate the public on casting of votes , it were SLFP stalwarts who protested against him. Mahinda Yapa speaking against Lakshman Yapa pointed out , it will do immense and infinite good if America educates the voters on voting for Sri Lankans who cast votes just for three exercise books or a mammoty .
Thereafter , a majority of senior party members of the SLFP had also expressed views in support of Mahinda Yapa.
