Hon. Mano Ganesan clarified that he had not accused the addressed party of resorting to post-election violence. He requested that his party also be given adequate time to campaign, arguing that decisions made at a party leaders’ meeting did not represent all parties because not everyone was present.

Verbatim record (translated)

Machine-translated from Sinhala / Tamil / English

¶ 01 I did not accuse you of that. Why put on a cap? I did not say you turned to violence after elections. I make a fair request: we, too, need time to campaign. You say party leaders agreed; but not all of us are represented at that meeting. That is the issue.
