Jathika Hela Urumaya (JHU) yesterday denied speculations that JHU is listed as a party in crisis at the Election Commissioner's office.
JHU Secretary, Champaka Ranawaka in a press communiqué said that Assistant Election Commissioner H.W.Siriwardhana had flatly denied such action and requested the public to overlook such media reports as malicious moves to degrade JHU.
Web based news service Lanka Truth reported that the Election Commissioner's office has decided to add JHU to the list of parties in dispute while adding that the party would not be able to contest snap election in the future.
The news report alleged that the Election Commissioner has taken this decision following the dispute within that party over the control of the party and there being two secretaries of that party and added that several factions of the JHU have begun to diverge on their own way with the dispute being out of control.
Meanwhile Mr. Ranawaka accused that this report is fictitious 'with no glimpse of truth' adding that the story was planted by a leading party in the government to discredit the JHU. (DTH)
