A letter has been sent to the Kurunagela District United National Party (UNP) MP Dayasiri Jayasekera to appear before the party Disciplinary Committee by 3.00 p.m. on 29 August.

The Disciplinary Committee has put forward eight charges against the Jayasekara.

The MP was instrumental in handling the fight to protect democracy within the UNP.

This move comes in the wake of MP Jayasekera addressing several UNP Provincial Council election rallies in the Ratnapura district.
