I have never been involved in politics since becoming President – Ranil

 

President Ranil Wickremesinghe has urged all persons to unite and fulfill their moral responsibility towards the country, while assuring that he has not forgotten the predicament suffered by the people over the last few months.

Speaking at the progress review meeting of the food security district program held at the Nuwara Eliya Town Hall Friday morning (22 Dec.), Wickremesinghe stated that everyone should step out of ‘traditional politics’ and join hands to fulfill their moral responsibility towards the country.

Referring to ‘traditional politics’, Wickremesinghe sidelined the traditional political system of trying to grab power at the next election by palming off all the responsibilities on the government. Thus, Wickremesinghe requested all persons to cast aside political differences and join hands in order to make the food security program a success.
