Three key electoral organisers of the Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) in the Matale District have resigned from their posts, citing persistent neglect by party leadership.
Former State Minister Rajith Aluvihare, who served as the party’s organiser for Rattota, confirmed the resignations, stating that he, along with Wasantha Aluvihare (Matale) and Champika Wijerathna (Dambulla), have stepped down from their organisational duties within the SJB.
Speaking to media, Rajith Aluvihare said the decision was made in response to what he described as a series of continued and deliberate acts of disregard by the party. “This is not an isolated incident. These resignations reflect growing frustration among district-level organisers who feel alienated from the party’s decision-making process,” he noted.
He further revealed that several other organisers are also expected to resign in the coming days, suggesting internal dissatisfaction may be more widespread than currently apparent.
Meanwhile, SJB MP Chaminda Wijesiri resigned from his position as the party’s electoral organizer for the Bandarawela constituency yesterday (23).
