The Pivithuru Hela Urumaya (PHU) on Monday urged the Sri Lankan prime minister Ranil Wickremesinghe to reveal what promises he had made to the Tamil National Alliance and western forces, the Daily Mirror reported.
Highlighting statements made by the TNA spokesperson, M A Sumanthiran and the chief minister of the Northern province, C V Wigneswaran urging the government to fulfill its promises, the PHU general secretary MP Udaya Gammanpila reportedly said, “everyone stresses the Government to fulfill their promises, but nobody is willing to reveal what are these promises."
"The government has not even mentioned such kind of promises in the Presidential and Parliamentary Election Policies," he said, adding, "the government had still not fulfilled even a single demand of the TNA and added that the people should have the utmost right to know what were the promises made by the government to them."
"Perhaps President Maithripala Sirisena could be unaware of these issues since the prime minister and the foreign affairs minister were usually engaged in matters related to the international forces in order to topple the former government."
“The prime minister should immediately reveal these promises to the country. Only then we will be able to predict whether 2017 would be a prosperous year or not,” he added.
