Three JVP members to resign to make the way for party nominees 
[17 October 2000]

After swearing in as MPs on Wednesday, three elected members of the Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna will resign to accommodate three other nominees of the party.

Wimal Weerawansa, the Propaganda Secretary of the JVP told that from the eight elected members five would remain while the other three would resign for the party to nominate three others to enable the JVP parliamentary group to act in a more effective manner.

Those who nominated he said, would also be from the respective district list and not out siders.

Wimal Weerawansa denied reports that its self exiled leader Somawansa Amarasinghe would be nominated on the National List.

However he did not rule out the possibility of him returning on a later date and accepting a position.
