Venerable Ittekande Saddhatissa Thero has expressed his willingness to contest in the next parliamentary elections under the banner of the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna (Pohottuwa) if invited by the party. However, he clarified that no final decision has been made regarding his candidacy.
Speaking to the media after a discussion held at the SLPP headquarters, the Thero addressed rumors about his departure from the country following the presidential election. He firmly denied any intention to flee, stating that he has not held any government position and, therefore, has no reason to leave the country.
His remarks suggest a potential political move, but the final decision appears to be pending further discussions within the party.
