Dear Mr. Mahinda Rajapasksa,
I am writing to you today, in my capacity as the chairman of the Sri Lanka Freedom Party (SLFP), the leading single political party in the United People’s Freedom Alliance (UPFA), which having victoriously produced four Executive Presidents and won four Parliamentary elections over the past two decades, was defeated in the Presidential election on last January 08 under your leadership.
