President Ranil Wickremesinghe has announced his presidential election manifesto will be unveiled on Thursday (Aug. 29).

He made this announcement while addressing the “Puluwan Sri Lanka” rally held near the Mawanella bus station earlier today (Aug. 28).

The manifesto which is titled ‘Puluwan Sri Lanka (Sri Lanka can) is based on economic stabilisation.

President Wickremesinghe emphasized the importance of continuing the country’s progress, likening it to crossing a vine bridge and warned that cutting the bridge would result in the country falling into the raging river, highlighting the risks of abandoning the current path.

The President also criticized the manifesto of the Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna (JVP), noting that reducing tax revenues would lead to a decrease of over Rs. 200 billion in state revenue.

Meanwhile, the Samagi Jana Balawegaya too will unveil the presidential election manifesto of their candidate – Sajith Premadasa on Thursday.
