The JVP this week said it would oppose any move towards a national government ahead of Sri Lanka's parliamentary election, stating that such a move was an attempt to deprive the electorate of the right to vote.
On Sunday, the president's media office announced that the opposition party, SLFP had agreed to form a national government.
"If there is a real need for a national government that may be formed after the next general election. We won’t be party to any such move. We also oppose any move to deprive the people of their right to elect a new government at a general election," JVP leader, Anura Kumara Dissanayake said however, insisting that a parliament should be dissolved in April and a fresh general election be called.
