Joint opposition’s aim to shake Colombo with a protest similar to ‘Arab Spring’ turned out to be an Arrack Spring, UNP Colombo District MP Mujibur Rahuman said.
He said the JO’s Janabalaya Kolambata rally was a complete failure.
“The JO sounded as if they will surround Colombo like a suicide squad, but they left Colombo around ten in the evening." he told Parliament today.
He said that after the failure of the protest, the JO leaders were trying to find a scapegoat for their debacle and spread false stories.
