It is reported that the group has come under the organization of NPP Canada and is ready to engage in active politics. They will stay in the country for almost two months.<br \/>However, certain political parties, especially Samagi Jana Balawegaya, have expressed their resentment regarding Sri Lankans living abroad getting involved in the presidential election process and have started making hateful statements. They forget that Sri Lankans living abroad provide the country with the most significant amount of foreign exchange and have a right to politics in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/lankatruth.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/NPP-canada-a.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"418\" src=\"https:\/\/lankatruth.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/NPP-canada-a.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26356\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lankatruth.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/NPP-canada-a.jpg 800w, https:\/\/lankatruth.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/NPP-canada-a-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lankatruth.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/NPP-canada-a-768x401.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lankatruth.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/NPP-canada-a-750x392.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<div class='saic-wrapper saic-default saic-comments-closed saic-border' style='overflow: hidden;'><div class='saic-wrap-link'><a id='saic-link-26354' class='saic-link saic-icon-link saic-icon-link-true auto-load-true' href='?post_id=26354&amp;comments=0&amp;get=30&amp;order=DESC' title='0 Comments'><i class='saico-comment'><\/i><span>0<\/span> Comments<\/a><\/div><!--.saic-wrap-link--><div id='saic-wrap-commnent-26354' class='saic-wrap-comments' style='display:none;'><div id='saic-wrap-form-26354' class='saic-wrap-form saic-clearfix'><div class='saic-form-avatar'><\/div><div id='saic-container-form-26354' class='saic-container-form saic-no-login'><p>Comments are closed<\/p><\/div><!--.saic-container-form--><\/div><!--.saic-wrap-form--><div id='saic-comment-status-26354'  class='saic-comment-status'><\/div><ul id='saic-container-comment-26354' class='saic-container-comments saic-order-DESC ' data-order='DESC'><\/ul><div class='saic-holder-26354 saic-holder'><\/div><\/div><!--.saic-wrap-comments--><\/div><!--.saic-wrapper-->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sri Lankans living abroad have started coming in an organized manner to ensure the victory of the National People&#8217;s Power [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":26355,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[106,97,107],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-26354","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-economy","category-smartphones","category-political","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lankatruth.com\/en\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26354","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lankatruth.com\/en\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lankatruth.com\/en\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lankatruth.com\/en\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lankatruth.com\/en\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=26354"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/lankatruth.com\/en\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26354\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":26358,"href":"https:\/\/lankatruth.com\/en\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26354\/revisions\/26358"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lankatruth.com\/en\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/26355"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lankatruth.com\/en\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=26354"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lankatruth.com\/en\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=26354"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lankatruth.com\/en\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=26354"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
