Gayantha says UNP confident in election win

As the United National Party (UNP) is about to contest separately at the General Election, it does not matter to whom the United People’s Freedom Alliance (UPFA) grant nominations to, Minister Gayantha Karunathilaka asserted.


The observation was made at a press conference held today (06), in response to a question about whether the UNPers have lost faith in the President with the controversial decision to give nominations to the former President.


“They have the freedom to decide to whom they going to give nominations. From the very beginning, we were of the view that the UNP will contest separately at the election. We secured the victory at the January polls. Same will happen at the General Election,” said Karunathilaka.
