(Lanka-e-News- 12.May.2016, 2.30PM) In the history of Sri Lanka (SL) , during the era when Kolam (comic histrionics) traditions raged we saw a Kolam being performed under the name of ‘Police Kolam’ . Today , in our midst now is ‘IGP Kolam’ Island wide in lieu of what we saw earlier. There is only one character in this Kolam and the main role is played by Poojitha Senadhibandara Jayasundara.
His first IGP Kolam ……
Jayasundara arrived at his office with his letter of appointment from the president. Seeing the DIGs and other officers who were seated , he suddenly banged his hand on the table and screamed ‘ hammata udu … then Poojitha too has become IG…’ in front of them. The DIGs who witnessed this first kolama began looking at each other in amazement.
The second IGP Kolam …..
After becoming the IGP he visited the Police anti narcotics division where he worked earlier. Tapping on the pot belly of an old officer , he inquired ‘ Hallo bada !… how is the new IG , is he good ?’ Thereafter when addressing a group of officers he went off at a tangent and recalled his school days. On another occasion , while listening to a sob story of a narcotics division officer who fell into the sea while conducting a raid , he started crying. Those who were present were shocked at this strange kolam because they have not seen an IGP crying openly like an infant crying for mother’s milk.
The third IGP kolama ….
When the Constitutional Council was selecting Poojitha Jayasundara as the IGP , there were two other contenders. Jayasundara had recently revealed to his friends what weird things he did to get his name chosen for the post of IGP.
He revealed the gurukama ( charm) he did in a remote Devale after going there .Poojitha had related how the Kapuwa (Devale incumbent) wrote the names of the three candidates inside three cages , and then how the Kapuwa did a charm by nailing the cages of the other two candidates in order to keep them confined. He had added spice to the story when narrating it. Those who were listening had then realized what a kolam it is, when the IGP was speaking about a Kapuwa in a remote corner , and was adding spice to the story.
The fourth IGP kolam…
Recently Poojitha has gone to his alma mater – a school in Kandy. While making a speech in public there he had said , he secured the IGP post because he performed a Buddha pooja at Gangarama temple for over 30 days.
In other words he had totally insulted the Constitutional Council which selected the IGP of the country. To the people who got an opportunity to see such a moron of an IGP who talks so stupidly , this was another kolam.
The fifth IGP kolam …
When the new IGP who has a flair for delivering sermons went to Kandy , he did not forget to summon the police officers of Kandy to deliver his sermon. The lecture that started at 10.00 a.m. went on until 4.30 p.m. The poor police officers were deprived of their noon meal. So, that was not only the longest lecture delivered by an IGP in the world , but also the bitterest IGP kolam .
The sixth IGP kolam…
Hitherto , in SL when a new IGP took office , never were banners displayed across the country to publicize the appointment of a new IGP. This IGP on the contrary told the Pettah traders association to put up banners wishing him well. Large banners with IGP in the middle flanked by the President and prime minister wishing him were seen across the whole of Colombo.
If banners wishing him well were displayed at the police stations , it would have been understandable.That being not the case ,this was another IGP kolama performed before the people free of charge .(one such banner is herein)
Seveneth IGP kolama …
The 7 th kolama is now ready for ‘screening’
The group of eccentric Poojitha and those of his same ilk are not a cause of worry to the nation but it will certainly and undoubtedly become a grave problem not only to the people but even to the entire police force when responsible positions in the police are going to be given to the group which is comprised of those of his same ilk while there are more suitable candidates to fill those positions.
It must be highlighted though Poojitha was in the police he knows bugger all about criminal investigation. He had never performed duties in such a division any day. Poojitha is therefore performing another IGP kolama seeking to appoint those of his ilk to the crime investigation and financial crime divisions which are now duly functioning . This is where Poojitha’s IGP kolama (comic histrionics) and sellama (play and play acting ) going to turn into a lellama (a disaster)
Await more episodes on this IGP kolama
