He said that as same as he was created by the party, the bondage between him and the people was also vital. He said that the party had informed the Central Committee members not to communicate with him.He further said that he did not bear any party responsibility now and the party had not informed him what would happen to him. He stated that shooting within was more painful than being shot from outside.Enquiring how he became unsuitable even to the party margin, Mr. Weerawansa asked from the membership to probe how such decisions were made. He said that a conspiracy will result in only a collapse and new births would come only through fresh dialogues.Lanka-e-News learns that JVP MP Lal Kantha who was at the parliament to pay last respect to the late Minister Jeyaraj Fernandopulle had told a foreign journalist that Mr. Weerawansa had exposed party inside to the President and he would be chased away from the party due to treachery.Sources close to Mr. Weerawansa said that 11 MPs of the JVP were ready to work as a separate group. MP Nandana Gunathilaka who was sacked earlier is likely to join with Mr. Weerawansa in future.Meanwhile, Mr. Weerawansa has organized a press briefing this afternoon to clarify the current situation</blockquote>
