I am  a Sri Lankan. It appears that the Wion channel in India, Sri Lanka's new president, Mr. Anura Kumara, although he is not a Marxist, has repeatedly advertised that he is a Marxist and slanders him. His current NPP alliance is not a so called marxist alliance. I do not belive that the channel Wion is not aware of this fact. Knowing this, Why is India behaving like this? Why does India dislike the current Sri Lankan People's Leader, Anura Kumara Dissanayake?

Sajith Preamadasa & President Ranil Wicramasinghe Must Join Together & Foam A New Govement.

Anura will be the next President.
Ranil with all state power, is out.He is most unpopular .

[lalithkuruwita]

This presenting lady is very bias. Every previous program was trying to support Ranil. She is still trying to undermine AKD.
