Former Minister T.B. Ekanayake said today that he received two letters indicating his expulsion from the UPFA Executive Committee (EC) yesterday.

 

The letters had been signed by SLFP Acting General Secretary Duminda Dissanayake and UPFA General Secretary Prof. Wishwa Warnapala.

 

He added that he is the fourth individual who received such letters.

 

It was reported yesterday that former Ministers S.M. Chandrasena, Pavithra Wanniarachchi and Kumara Welgama had also received their letters of expulsion from the UPFA Executive Committee.

 

Ekanayake said that he was disappointed at receiving such letters especially considering their electoral performance. All four individuals who were sacked, performed well in the election, he pointed out.
