Deshahithaishi Jāthike Vyapāraya (Patriotic National Movement – PNM) was formed to fulfill  some urgent national needs i.e.  to save our Nation, its sovereignty and the territorial integrity of our country. We felt we could not wait any longer silently witnessing the disintegration of the Nation and the country which is taking place before our very eyes in every passing day.

The Patriotic National Movement was formed with three primary aims in view.  

1. To resist any attempts to divide the country in the name of devolution of power. To preserve sovereignty of the Nation and the territorial integrity of the country.

2. To resist the neo-colonial economic exploitation that is being carried out  by Western powers. To save our economic resources, our land, rivers and forests from being usurped by foreign powers.

3. To resist the cultural invasion aimed at destroying our National identity and our cultural heritage. To preserve our civilization and culture.

It is be obvious to the more enlightened that these aims are part of a more fundamental aim – namely that of liberating our Nation from the clutches of the colonialists who are approaching on us at every passing day. What we need today is a National Freedom Struggle to save our nation. Nothing short of such a broad -based struggle will  save our country or our Nation.
