Aug 17, Colombo: Inner circle of ruling party SLFP was rocked today when they heard that President’s desire to resign from her post in near future, ColomboPage learns.
President Kumaratunga reportedly told her close associates about her wish of stepping down as the President. It is reported that she would lead the next general election campaign as prime ministerial candidate despite already publicized nomination of Minister Anura Bandaranaike.
“From this strategy she can at least become Leader of the Opposition, if she lose the election,” a close-confidante told ColomboPage on condition of anonymity. He added that if she were successful in the campaign she would become a Prime Minister of the country.
It is learnt that President Kumaratunga plans to discuss her plan with Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa and is also trying to get his support for a power-sharing deal in a future SLFP government. According to the constitution, the Prime Minister would become the President when the post is vacated from resignation or death.
