In what appeared to be a rare opportunity for political cohabitation and harmony, UNP chief ministerial candidate Ranjan Ramanayake is said to have stepped on to a UPFA stage in Pelmadulla and addressed the gathering.
He said he got on to the stage while on his way to attend an election rally in the area after some of those who were gathered for a UPFA rally requested him to address them.
“As I was passing by people who were at the UPFA rally waved to me. I stopped my vehicle and talked to them. There were some Tamil youths as well. They wanted to pose for a photo with me. I agreed to it. They seemed to be my fans. They asked me to get on the stage and address them,” he said.
Mr. Ramanayake said he spoke in Sinhala and with difficulty in Tamil, highlighting the importance of political cohabitation and living in peace and harmony.
“At the time all the UPFA speakers had left,” he said and added that it was those at another UPFA rally who had allegedly attacked him.
