Harin hints next PM could be from Uva Province!
Former Minister Harin Fernando has hinted that the next Prime Minister could be from the Uva Province.
He made these comments at an ‘Ekwa Jayagamu’ event held in Badulla yesterday (Aug. 11).
“I can sense this. If we need to appoint a Prime Minister from the Uva Province, if we can win all 09 seats (from Badulla District), I will take the responsibility to make him the Prime Minister,” he said, referring to Minister Nimal Siripala de Silva, who was also in attendance.
In the 2020 Parliamentary election, Nimal Siripala de Silva topped the Badulla district preferential vote list, obtaining 141,901 votes.
