Sri Lankans should resist attempts to create religious tension – NPP

National People’s Power Executive Committee Member, MP Vijitha Herath said that all Sri Lankans should resist attempts create conspiracies and religious conflicts in the country. He was speaking at a NPP press conference in Colombo.

The MP said that although it has been a long time since the end of the war, the economy has collapsed and the people are unable to live.

The MP said that instead of creating national unity and building the economy, various activities are being carried out in this country that are re-igniting racism and religious conflicts.

A person named Jerome Fernando making statements insulting Buddhism is an attempt in this regard, he added.
