A group of five UNP Parliamentarians has decided to
work as an independent group in Parliament if the party is not
reorganized according to the proposals they have submitted to the
leadership, UNP sources said yesterday (8).
The five UNP members demanded for party reforms and a change of policy
at a recent working committee meeting of the UNP saying that the party
had no future if it continued with its present policies.
They fear that the party reforms they sought may not take place.
