Civil Activists Protest Outside SLPP Office; Coconuts Smashed & Heated Exchange With Police

COLOMBO (News 1st); A group of civil activists gathered in front of the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna office at Nelum Mawatha, Battaramulla for a protest.

Their protest centered around the contention that the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna lacks the mandate to endorse bills affecting the country.

Among the activists present was Jamuni Kamantha Thushara, who had participated in the signing of an agreement known as “One Agenda for the Nation” in Colombo yesterday afternoon.

This morning, they assembled outside the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna head office to protest.

Security measures were heightened, with police and anti-riot teams stationed at the party headquarters. However, civil activists were denied entry.

Additionally, Dan Priyasad, a civil organization activist, attempted to reach the protest site from the Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna party headquarters.
