  • Sri Lanka's Politics: a Tussle Between Democratic Defeat and Triumph
    Sri Lanka’s Politics: A Tussle between Democratic Defeat and Triumph By Srimal Fernando and Pooja Singh November 4th, 2018 The answer to Sri Lanka’s current political crisis is complex. The split between United People’s Freedom Alliance (UPFA) and United National Party (UNP) turned into a struggle for power between the Sri Lankan President Sirisena, the leader of UPFA alliance comprising theSri Lanka Freedom Party(SLFP) and the UNP party leader Ranil wikckramsinghe. In the day following 26th October 2018, power in Sri Lanka seemed to reside in confusing display after the new Premier Rajapaksha was sworn in by President Sirisena. In public, those in the new government which is a combination of UPFA and Sri Lanka Podujana Peramuna(SLPP) under the leadership of President Sirisena and the new Premier Rajapaksha were generally polite to one another presenting surprisingly a united face. About 48 hours after the fall of Premier Ranil Wickramsinghe Government, there was this addition in nervousness among the international community especially with the US and the European Union (EU) nations. The ousted coalition led by Ranil Wickramasinghe which had majority number of parliamentary members on the day of change of government was formidable and was further handicapped by the fact that some of the best known political leaders including Hon Wasantha Senanayake (UNP), Dunesh Gankanda (UNP), Tamil National Alliance (TNA) MP S. Viyalendiran and Ceylon Worker’s Congress(CWC) Arumugan Ramanathan Thondaman crossing over to the newly formed government side. One could argue that populism is perhaps the most interesting phenomena in Sri Lankan politics now a day.
