The clarification was issued through a special official letter released by the UNP Central Office at Sirikotha today (17).
In the statement, the party emphasized that Marasinghe does not hold membership in the UNP and therefore cannot be regarded as representing the party in any capacity.
The UNP further noted that any views, opinions, or statements expressed by Marasinghe should not be interpreted as reflecting the official position or policies of the party.
The statement was issued amid public discussions involving comments made by Marasinghe, with the party seeking to clearly distinguish its official stance from any remarks attributed to him.
