It has been reported that Samagi Jana Balawegaya Party Chairman and Member of Parliament, Mr. Sarath Fonseka, may be awarded the honorary title of Marshal, a rank equivalent to a six-star general in some international military traditions.
According to sources, this rank has been proposed following a request by Mr. Fonseka. He currently holds the title of Field Marshal, conferred by the Sri Lankan government in recognition of his leadership during the nation’s armed conflict.
The honorary title of Marshal is historically significant and has been granted to distinguished political and military leaders in various countries. If awarded, it would mark another milestone in Mr. Fonseka's illustrious military and public service career.
This development underscores Mr. Fonseka’s enduring contributions to national defense and leadership, though official confirmation regarding the appointment has yet to be made.
