[@suniljayaweera-wb6sr]

It's widely expected that the NPP will win the presidential election, but Sri Lankans are concerned about foreign influence, particularly from the Indian government. They hope India won't interfere in the polls, as they believe it supported Ranil's rise to power during the 2021 Struggle, much like its perceived involvement in the LTTE and Easter Sunday attacks!!

[@thavamt1776]

Inda already interfered and spoke with Anura and gave support to him

[@K.A.ADhammika]

AKD is the next leader in Srilanka ❤

[@suniljayaweera-wb6sr]

Ranil wasn’t chosen by the Great Struggle of 2021, unlike Muhammad Yunus in Bangladesh. he was appointed by the Rajapaksa regime with support from India and Western nations. Ranil, the Rajapaksas, and 76 years of government leadership are blamed for bankrupting the country through poor economic decisions. As president, Ranil lacks a social contract with the people, prioritizing bondholders' interests. A new government with a fresh mandate should renegotiate the IMF deal, which currently favors unilateral and ISB bondholders.

[@chandanajmg5032]

Anura will win presidential election with 60% of votes
