Opposition Leader Sajith Premadasa said that the Samagi Jana Balawegaya (SJB) will stage public protest in Colombo on September 24 against the proposed 22nd Amendment to the Constitution.

Opposition leader Sajith Premadasa accused the ruling government of using the 22nd Amendment to undermine democracy, judicial independence, and the rule of law, vowing to mobilise public protests starting September 24 in Colombo. He claimed the amendment would concentrate power in a single party and urged the support of progressive citizens. The opposition plans to rally significant public force to defeat the amendment, which it calls a 'doomsday' move threatening the nation's future.
