LLF an alternative

Vickramabahu was speaking at a special press briefing at the NSSP Headquarters in Colombo yesterday He said that the LLF is the only party which has genuine desire to establish free and fair society in the country. Vickramabahu said the people of the country have been deprived of their basic human rights and his party is dedicated to ensure that freedom and social justice prevail in the country. “We do not accept the Sarath Fonseka’s policies. But we extended our support to a collective effort to ensure free and fair society in the country”, he added.
