Former MP Vajira Abeywardena has expressed his delight over the groundbreaking victory of Anura Kumara Dissanayake’s government, marking a transformative moment in Sri Lankan politics. The victory has been particularly notable for the administration’s unprecedented success in gaining substantial political influence in the historically underrepresented Northern and Eastern provinces.
Abeywardena emphasized, “The current government has been able to gain power in the North and East, something no previous government has achieved. This is a unique victory for Sri Lankans.”
Dissanayake’s leadership and the National People’s Power coalition’s reform-oriented approach have resonated with citizens disillusioned by prior administrations. His administration’s emphasis on anti-corruption, economic reform, and efforts to address regional disparities has been widely praised. The victory also signals a broader shift in the country’s political landscape, reflecting the public’s demand for accountability and equitable development
