Challenges The president

The opposition leader Ranil Wickramasinghe challenged his excellency the president in a gathering recently held.He commmented on the issue of cease fire agreement .Government is blaming over him about the cease fire agreement but the previous opposition leader also talked about giving the support to that.He said further if I'm going to put in to jail because of that there should be another person with me in that jail,that is non other former opposition leader(current president ).He said he would like to have a debate with the president regarding current situation and cease fire.However this is a very rare occasion where the opposition leader challenged the president of SriLanka.As he was often challenged by ministers of the current government. However Sri Lankan politicians are now trying to gain reputation from the public because of the upcoming election
