Former Provincial Councilor Waruna Rajapaksa claims MPs from the National People’s Power and other districts are in hush-hush discussions at a house near ex-President Ranil Wickremesinghe’s residence to form a new government. Political realignment may be underway.
Former Provincial Councilor Waruna Rajapaksa has revealed that secret discussions are currently taking place at a house located close to former President Ranil Wickremesinghe’s residence regarding the formation of a new government.
In a video shared on his social media channel, Rajapaksa alleged that several Members of Parliament from the National People’s Power (NPP) party have joined these talks. He further claimed that MPs representing various districts across the country are involved in these ongoing discussions.
According to Rajapaksa, the talks revolve around the possibility of forming a new ruling coalition, although official details remain scarce. He emphasized that this is more than just speculation and pointed to credible information suggesting concrete efforts are being made to engineer a power shift in Parliament.
The video, which has since gone viral on local platforms, has triggered a wave of reactions across the political landscape. If confirmed, the news could signal an unexpected realignment in Sri Lankan politics and a potential challenge to the current administration.
As of now, no official statements have been released by those allegedly involved, and it remains unclear how far along these talks are or whether they have the backing of key political figures. However, the location of the alleged discussions—so close to the former president’s home has raised eyebrows and fueled further speculation about his possible involvement or influence.
With the nation already experiencing political turbulence and economic uncertainty, the emergence of backdoor negotiations adds another layer to Sri Lanka’s complex political narrative.
