I WILL REMAIN WITH UNP: VASANTHA

UNP MP Vasantha Senanayake yesterday denied reports that he had once again joined the Mahinda Rajapaksa government. Mr. Senanayake told a media briefing that he had only attended a function which was attended by MP Ven. Athureliye Ratana Thera earlier in the morning.“I have not joined and will not join any other party, but will remain with the UNP,” he said.
