Opposition to the MCC agreement was a major plank in the SLPP’s Presidential Election campaign platform with leaders like Wimal Weerawansha, Udaya Gammanpila and even the GMOA’s Dr Anuruddha Padeniya saying that the deal would mean a division of the country forcing people from the South to get visas from the Americans to go on pilgrimage to Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa.
This sentiment would have swung many a vote in the Deep South to elect President Gotabaya Rajapaksa.
