He made this pledge during a media briefing in Colombo this morning (28).

Speaking further, the common candidate has said, "I would like to tell President Mahinda Rajapaksa to paste as much cutouts as he likes on the remaining lightposts as well as on Sigiriya rock, Adam's peak and Sinharaja reserve etc. However, after 08th, all these cutouts will be removed through the police and elections commissioner after 08th. Until then, do paste any amount of cutouts as you choose. However, I do not have the money to put up cutouts around the country. We will have posters and several cutouts in venues of our meetings."
