Former Minister Nimal Siripala de Silva has expressed his readiness to retire from politics, stating that he has no reservations about stepping down.
Speaking to the media, he mentioned that despite his willingness to retire, he feels a responsibility toward those who have been with him throughout his 35-year political career. He said that abandoning his political colleagues and supporters would be a difficult decision.
“I have no problem stepping down. But after 35 years of doing politics with these people, I can’t just leave them behind. The only issue I have is whether I can leave them or not. So, it’s not about winning or losing,” he said.
He further revealed that after consulting various parties, the consensus was that he should contest again. (NewsWire)
