The United People’s Freedom Alliance (UPFA) will form a coalition government after the forthcoming election, thus several political parties are expected to join hands with the party in near future, North Western Province Chief Minister Dayasiri Jayasekara said.


The observation was made at a meeting held in Kurunegala, last afternoon (23).


“Field Marshal Sarath Fonseka’s Democratic Party is likely to back the UPFA at the upcoming election,” Jayasekara added. 


He also went in to say that several Parliamentarians of the United National Party (UNP) will also defect and join the UPFA before the election.
