Sri Lanka's Leftist Coalition Wins 2024 Snap Election: Dissanayake Secures Parliamentary Majority

In a stunning political shift, Sri Lanka's leftist ruling coalition, led by President Anura Kumara Dissanayake, has secured a landslide victory in the 2024 snap parliamentary elections.

With partial results showing Dissanayake’s National People’s Power (NPP) on track for a commanding majority, the win positions the Marxist-leaning leader to challenge austerity measures imposed by previous administrations.

This video explores the implications of the election results, Dissanayake's anti-austerity stance, and what his victory means for Sri Lanka's struggling economy.
