SLPP MP Namal Rajapaksa said that he believes, following Anura Kumara Dissanayake's visit to India, the JVP will support Indian investors coming into Sri Lanka.
MP Rajapaksa pointed out that the JVP in the past had played a key part in Sri Lanka losing several Indian and global investors due to its intervention.
He further said that the Sampur Power Project was an example of the loss faced by the country as a result of the JVP’s anti-India policies.
"However, the JVP has now reached a different view and has engaged in a tour to India, which is a good thing,” he said.
A JVP delegation led by Anura Kumara Dissanayake is in India for a five-day visit on an invitation extended by the Indian government.
The delegation is scheduled to visit three cities —New Delhi, Ahmedabad, and Thiruvananthapuram — and hold meetings with government officials, and members of the business community, in addition to visiting centres of excellence in agriculture and industry.
Dissanayake has already met several high-profile Indian officials, including External Affairs Minister Dr. S. Jaishankar and Indian National Security Advisor Ajit Doval.
