(Lanka-e-News -11.Sep.2024, 6.30 pm) Recently, a well-known politician, who is Ranil's right-hand man, contacted Lanka E News London office. He has been a personal friend of Lanka E News for some time. Despite being Ranil's right-hand man, he has never faced corruption allegations.
"How are things going?" he asked.
"Nothing much, looks like Anura will win by a large margin," said Lanka E News.
"Yes, it seems like Anura will win. But our boss is coming in second. Sajith is getting fewer votes than us," Ranil's right-hand man said, acknowledging their loss.
"How much do you think Anura (JVP leader) will get?" Ranil's right-hand man asked again.
"From what we see, he will get more than the historical percentage of 62% that Chandrika got," replied Lanka E News.
"On one hand, I have to tell you, deep down I feel a bit happy about the JVP winning," Ranil's right-hand man said, surprising us.
"Why do you say that?" Lanka E News inquired.
"Well, to clean up this dirty political mess, the JVP needs to come in. Our parties could never do that. Besides, we've been in parliament for a long time. I know Anura is an intelligent man," Ranil's right-hand man said honestly.
"If you feel a bit happy about Anura winning, there's only one thing to do," said Lanka E News.
"What is that?" he asked.
"When you go to vote, go into that booth and vote for the NPP. After all, that’s something your boss would notice," said Lanka E News.
Ranil's right-hand man smiled but said nothing. The conversation went on for quite a while, but since it was not very significant, we didn't write it down.
(This is not gossip. It is a true incident.)
