The United National Party(UNP) has questioned President Anura Kumara Dissanayake over extending a congratulatory message to newly elected Tamil Nadu Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay.
The UNP noted that congratulatory messages from a Head of State are generally reserved for other Heads of State and not provincial or state leaders of foreign countries.
The party also questioned why similar messages were not extended to West Bengal Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari or Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma.
