(Lanka-e-News -24.Aug.2016, 11.55PM) Among the independent Commissions that were appointed in fulfillment of the aspiration of the masses of the victorious Rainbow revolution , it is the public service commission that seems to be struck by rigor mortis even before its death. They do not seem to have a knowledge of the laws of the country. Neither do they seem to know what are the true aspirations of the victorious people who defeated the rogues , rascals and rowdies of the previous regime. They have neither identified the true ideals and goals nor have they any idea as to what the people are truly seeking for and on behalf of the country .
Surely , If they know what are truly expected of them and what they ought to do genuinely , they would not conceal Ranawakes and Pelpitas of the notorious blue brigand until the civil organizations exposed them .By trying to protect the crooks and the corrupt the commission has plunged itself into irretrievable despair .
It is to be noted the foregoing introduction is written to stimulate the focus of the public on the action the Commission is going to take following the latest exposure of corrupt J.J.Ratnasiri appointed by the Public service Commission as the new secretary to the ministry of public administration closely on the heels of Dadallage’s disgraceful and abominable drama.
Rathnasiri who was the secretary to the ministry of home affairs before assuming duties as the secretary to ministry of public administration has misused three State vehicles on the sly , based on reports reaching Lanka e news inside information division, in spite of the fact that a secretary of a ministry is lawfully entitled to only one State vehicle.
When Rathnasiri took over duties at the ministry of home affairs , he received an official Prado Vehicle bearing No. WPKV 1773 ,along with fuel supply and two drivers which are his legitimate entitlement.
Yet this corrupt State officer has used a blue colored Nissan Teena vehicle bearing No. CAF 5416 and another Nissan Sunny white colored car bearing No. CAG 6068 illegally for his personal and family use on the sly without anybody’s notice. He had also met the fuel expenses thereof out of State funds , and also used the official drivers unlawfully.
These rackets came to light only when this corrupt scoundrel was taken out of the ministry of home affairs and transferred to the ministry of public administration. The rackets of his he hid while he was at the ministry of home affairs were exposed no sooner than he went out from the Home affairs ministry .
The vehicle No,. CAG 6068 that was used by Rathnasiri’s wife and his home was returned to the ministry’s fleet only just about a month before he left ministry of home affairs.
However the vehicle bearing No. CAF 5416 ( blue colored Nissan Teena) had disappeared. This was a vehicle which triggered a storm of controversy , and was used by former additional secretary of the defense ministry , Ms. Damayanthi Jayaratne who fled the country.
With the new government taking over the reins , Damayanthi was transferred from defense ministry to Finance ministry and from there to Home affairs ministry. She was working in the Home affairs ministry for a brief period of ten days only.
Damayanthi has been taking this vehicle along with her wherever she went like Mary and her little lamb . Finally the vehicle No .CAF 5416 was with the Home affairs ministry. Since the day Damayanthi fled to a foreign country , this vehicle that was at the Home affairs ministry had gone missing at the ministry.
Rathnasiri an accomplished racketeer had handed over this vehicle to his wife and daughter for their personal use. Rathnasiri has like nobody’s business taken the vehicle home without making any record in any register .Even the fuel supply to it has been met out of State funds through the State vehicle fleet list. The repairs too had been effected through the State vehicles fleet list . That is , all what he had done are absolutely illegal not to mention the public funds wasted on him, his wife and his family .
Being an officer of the highest echelons of public service he has committed a grave criminal offence , the least expected of such an officer . Besides he has done it fearlessly , fraudulently and deliberately , thereby committing criminal breach of trust. That is, he has defrauded the very government he served , outright.
What’s more ? he had committed this unpardonable offence under the good governance era , which itself is a heinous crime . if these crimes had been committed under the lawless corrupt Rajapakse regime it is understandable , for that regime itself was a den of thieves with Alibaba at the helm. But , under the governance of good government which came to power promising to flush out the crooks and cronies from the nooks and crannies, such crooks whether he is a crook , crony or a ‘donkey’ cannot be allowed to go unpunished.
In the circumstances , it is the absolute responsibility of the Public service commission we described as suffering from rigor mortis in the earlier paragraphs, to see to it the culprit is duly punished. Over 6.2 million people for good governance who are not deaf , blind or dumb are intently watching to make sure whether this state entity will truly act as a commission beneficial to the masses or be a ‘committal’ militating against them.

The "2 Ronnies"of Yahapalanaya seems to be clueless how to CLEAN up the administration of the MR's period. They should learn a lesson from the Turkish President how to cleaned up the entire system within 4 weeks of that failed coup.
