Secret Letter From General To Ranil – 'Lanka Irida'

Gen. Sarath Fonseka, in a letter to UNP Leader Ranil Wickremasinghe, has asked him to work for long term national objectives without resorting to short term requirements. The letter has pointed out a large number of undemocratic moves that had been committed in the country in the past.

Gen. Fonseka in his letter has emphasized that all forces that cherish democracy should be united to confront the undemocratic state that has sprung up in the country. He has stated the most appropriate way of confronting this menace is to broaden the unity among the parties and organizations that came together at the presidential election.
