In the Deraniyagala local council’s budget poll, the team representing Samagi Jana Balawegaya won by four votes.
At that time, the Podujana Peramuna demanded a division and it was decided to give a division to the assembly.
Here, although Podujana Paramuna and the United National Party had taken a principled decision to support the poll, SJB was able to defeat the budget by 10 to 6.
