We will be the main opposition says TNA MP

The Tamil National Alliance will serve as the main opposition in Sri Lanka, said the TNA MP Selvam Adaikkalanathan, after the UNP and SLFP decided to form a unity government following Monday's election, reports the Daily Mirror.

The UNP last week signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the SLFP on forming a unity government for the next two years, after it failed to win a simple majority, obtaining 106 parliamentary seats.

The TNA won 16 parliamentary seats, making it the third largest party in parliament.
