This was Sri Lankas worst ever election.

The PA who won election in 2000 using various mal practices and violence could not continue as the SLMC who was supporting the govt. left and joined opposition.

CBK postponed the parliament before the no confidence (Visvasa Banga) was submitted,
JVP came to the support of PA how ever a fraction led by SB dissanayaka and GL peiris joined opposition to support Visvasa Banga Against PA.

CBK dissolved the parliament days before Visvasa Banga and a New Election was called on Dec 5th.

The country was at war and facing a huge economic crisis under 7 years of PA rule. The PA defectors said due to CBKs dictator rule and poor management of country has created this situation.

PA & JVP formed an alliance (un official) to attack UNP leader Ranil linking him with Tamil Tigers. They accused UNP of having a secret pact with Tamil Tigers.

PA created a worst ever media campaign and terror campaign using Govt. Media, JVP and Private Armies of Ministers.

Gampaha, Kandy, Hambantota, Puttlam, Anuradapura, Kurunagala had most of the violence. Over 50 people were dead.

The people accused president CBK  for failing to restore law and order to conduct a fair and free election.
 
On election day 10 supporters of SLMC and 9 Supporters of UNP were murdered creating the worst ever case of Election History of Sri Lanka.

The UNP in a press release requested CBK to arrest a powerful minister and his son in Kandy for these killings.

Thanks SIR
"if you were not there
we would have had another nightmare of 6 years
or more .."


Election Commissioner Dayananda Dissanayaka
Stood Tall Among Everyone in this Election 2001.

 His braveness and courage and his staff commitment to free and fair election protected the final election result

The armed forces and police did their best to guard the election booths despite the sporadic violence by  politicians
 
Dayananda Dissanayaka should be remembered in Sri Lanka as much as  CBK, JR, and Premadasa

Well done sir...

Sri Lanka Mahajanas
