Sajith Premadasa as the UNP Presidential candidate didn't make much of a difference as he was already representing a divided group that further empowered Gotabaya to play the strongman card. The Easter Bombings gave Rajapaksas the thrust while a lack of unity between Ranil and Sirisena cost them heavily. Looks like Sri Lanka will have tough days ahead and would be interesting to see how India walks the tight rope with Rajapaksas back at the helm and their pro-China tilt.

@Vishsai Good question. The way things are going looks like we are going to have tougher times ahead in the neighbourhood. Bangladesh was positive but if the NRC comes into effect in India, then we will lose that leverage also with them. Bhutan also is not exactly on the same page now and have begun hedging their bets.

Some of the major reasons for the Gotabaya victory include the constitutional crisis that affected the country, the clashes between Sirisena and Ranil openly, and the Easter Bombings making the Rajapaksas claim that they are stronger on National Security. Gotabaya is not great news for India but definitely great news for China. Ranil as PM was perceived close to India and seen as an instinctive economic reformer. Sirisena as President crumbled over the last 1.5 years.

Gotabaya will be Mahinda 2.0 if not worse!!! I fear for the ethnic and religious minorities there now with Gotabaya back at helm. https://www.ndtv.com/world-news/sri-lanka-elections-2019-gotabaya-rajapaksa-wins-sri-lanka-presidential-elections-says-spokesperson-2133788

@vimoh I remember reading this when you had put it on Twitter and I liked it then. I was very happy to re-read the whole thing again. I can relate to every single word you wrote about. I remember what it meant to be scoffed at for choosing humanities over the sciences at the Intermediate level. I don't think anyone could have explained it better than the way you just did. This is something I care about a lot too. Have you written an article on it??? It would be easier to share on other platforms
