The Bar Association of Sri Lanka (BASL) in a statement extended its congratulations to Anura Kumara Dissanayake on his election as the 9th Executive President of the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka at the election held on 21 September 2024.

“We extend our best wishes to him in the discharge of the duties and responsibilities of this high office,” it said.

“We firmly believe that the President will fulfil the pledges given to the people of Sri Lanka who have given a mandate to safeguard the rule of law, independence of the judiciary, usher in an era of good governance and change the culture of impunity that has pervaded the political, social, economic and cultural landscape of our motherland,” BASL said.

“We also believe that the President will lay the foundation for a unified Sri Lanka where all its people are treated equally, establishing a common Sri Lankan identity irrespective of differences of ethnicity, race, religion, and other divisive identities which have plagued our motherland for many years,” BASL added.
