Sri Lankan president has fled the country to escape huge protests that erupted as the country struggled with an economic crisis. Rajapaksa had repeatedly assured the speaker of parliament that he would step down on Wednesday, but his resignation letter had not arrived as of Thursday. "We cannot trust any politician. Every politician lies. They lie every day," said a local. A report by NDTV's Sreeja MS.
