Sarath Fonseka announces candidacy for Presidential Election

Former Sri Lanka Army Commander Field Marshal Sarath Fonseka has formally declared his candidacy for the upcoming Presidential election.

"I wish to announce my candidacy for the Presidency to the people of Sri Lanka. For 76 years, we have been led by an inept political group that has driven us to bankruptcy. For Sri Lanka to grow, we need to Crush Corruption. We need to leverage our natural resources to boost income generation. This is my formal and official announcement as the Presidential candidate of Sri Lanka for the 2024 Presidential election," Fonseka said in X.

He invited every Sri Lankan to join him to take Sri Lanka forward.
