During the inauguration of a smart classroom at Bharathipuram Maha Vidyalayam, Kilinochchi, as part of the 'Sakwala' program, Sajith Premadasa, the leader of the Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB), assured the public that, upon assuming power, he would implement the 13th Amendment to the Constitution. Premadasa emphasized the importance of unity, urging citizens to come together "as children of one mother" irrespective of their religious or racial backgrounds to aid in the country's reconstruction.
