Sri Lanka has taken a decisive step toward reshaping its political and economic trajectory.

The resounding victory of President Anura Kumara Dissanayake's Marxist-leaning National People's Power (NPP) coalition in this week's general election signals a clear rejection of entrenched family dynasties and a hunger for transformative governance.

With a two-thirds parliamentary majority, the NPP now faces the dual challenge of meeting the high expectations of the people while steering the country through a precarious economic recovery.

This election represents a dramatic shift in Sri Lanka's political culture.

Voters from across the island, including minority Tamil regions historically sceptical of centralised power, have rallied behind Mr Dissanayake's message of equity, poverty alleviation, and systemic reform.

The election results are not just a mandate for change but a demand for tangible action to address deep-seated issues like corruption, inequality, and a high cost of living.

Not just vehicles

Stopping well-maintained vehicles from running is neither just nor ethical, nor practical.
