The NPP’s emergence as a viable political alternative to the traditional ruling parties in Sri Lanka has a lot to do with its significant role in the popular mobilizations during the Aragalaya, or popular protests in 2022. The protests, which forced the then president Gotabaya Rajapaksa and his brother and Prime Minister Mahida to resign, emerged after their government’s mismanagement of the economy and its failure to deal with the hardships faced by the people.
