TNA MP launches hunger strike in Batti

Tamil National Alliance (TNA) Parliamentarian S. Viyalendiran launched a hunger strike in Batticaloa yesterday in support of a strike launched by Parliamentarian Ven. Athuraliye Rathana Thero.

The MP, who now supports the Joint Opposition, said that he launched the strike in solidarity with the hunger strike launched by Ven. Athuraliye Rathana Thero in Kandy.

Ven. Athuraliye Rathana Thero commenced a hunger strike in Kandy on Friday (31) opposite the Sri Dalada Maligawa (Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic) demanding the removal of Minister Rishad Bathiudeen and Governors M.L.A.M, Hizbullah and Azath Salley from their posts.
