JVP leader Anura Kumara on Pada Yathra

The objective of the Joint Opposition organized protest march "Pada Yathra" was not to topple the government but to create fear among the sleuths and judicial officers investigating the fraud and corruption of the previous Mahinda Rajapaksa regime, Sri Lanka's Marxist party Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna (JVP) said. Addressing a news briefing in Colombo JVP leader Parliamentarian Anura Kumara Dissanayake said it was very clear from the speech made by retired President Mahinda Rajapaksa at the end of the Pada Yathra
