JVP has become LTTE cat’s paw - Wimal

The diehard JVP leadership has become the LTTE’s unofficial cat’s paw. The party has been driven to a sorry state because certain party members have begun to work according to an agenda of some foreign powers active within the party, said the Janatha Nidahas Peramuna (JNP) President Wimal Weerawansa.

He was addressing its inaugural meeting at the Ananda Samarakoon theatre, Negegoda recently.

He said today the JVP has turned to be Ranil’s junior team. For over two years we struggled to change the direction, the party was following.

When it was found our efforts were in futile, we left the party and formed the JNP, so that we were ready to face any challenges. Party President, Wimal Weerawansa, General Secretary Nandana Gunatilleke, National Organiser Kamal Deshapriya and shttp://www.blogger.com/img/gl.link.gifeveral others participated.

A large number of invitees including the members of the clergy was also present. Several artistes including Buddhadasa Vithanachchi, Lal Kularatne, Rogger Seneviratne and Cyril Enderamulla received the party membership.
