Sri Lanka main opposition, United National Party (UNP) Says, It will launch a series of anti-government agitations in January next year(2013), to express condemnation over the crisis in the Judiciary.
Addressing the media, Kurunegala District UNP parliamentarian Akila Viraj Kariyawasam said public has now lost confidence in the judiciary due to the way the government is handling the impeachment motion against the Chief Justice.

“The education system is in a mess. The health sector has become quite unstable with the doctors and nurses engaging in trade union actions. All supposedly independent commissions, such as the Police Commission and the Public Services Commission are controlled by the government. Now the Judiciary is also not independent, as we can clearly see,” he said.
