Main Opposition Samagi Jana Balawegaya Leader Sajith Premadasa yesterday opined that the current Parliament is outdated, suggesting it needs a proper fresh mandate from the people.

“We now have to consider how we ended up here, in the middle of a presidential term, to elect a new President. It was because of a massive public wave against an elected President. This is now an outdated Parliament, with a mandate given for an ousted President,” Premadasa said after the conclusion of the vote in Parliament to elect the new President to serve the remainder of ousted Gotabaya Rajapaksa’s term.

“We must work according to the Constitution. The reality is people are struggling without fuel, food and basics. We must have a national policy with clear timelines to put the economy on track and save this country. As the Opposition we will give our utmost support for this,” Premadasa added.
