    Several senior leaders of the present government are supporting apolitical Common Presidential Candidate Gen. Sarath Fonseka at the presidential elections says Minister Champike Ranawaka.

    He said this speaking at a press conference held by the JHU at Mahaweli Centre in Colombo yesterday (24th). The press conference had been convened to explain 29 policy matters the JHU had proposed to include in the second stage of ‘Mahinda Chinthana’ to be issued as the election manifesto of Mr. Mahinda Rajapakse.

    Minister Ranawaka said a powerful minister of the government who expected to be the prime minister under this government in 2005 is attempting to become the PM when the ‘Swan’ comes to power. However, the government has the capacity to confront any challenge that comes from the opposition said Mr. Ranawaka.

    The Leader of the group of JHU Parliamentarians Ven. Atharaliye Rathana Thero and its Information Secretary Nishanthe Sri Warnasinghe too were present.
