(Lanka-e-News -23.April.2015, 8.00PM) After the Medamulana highway robbers who sucked mother Lanka milk dry were defeated at the last presidential elections on January 8 th , some of them fled the country, while some others - the shameless SLFP crooks are apparently reviving to the detriment of the country.
On the other hand , the incumbent president of the country Maithripala Sirisena , who is also the SLFP president – is right now in dire straits trying to control those crooks while the genuine forces of the people that even risked their lives to steer forward the new government of good governance with a view to introduce true welcome changes within the country by defeating the corrupt brutal Rajapakse regime , has also after remaining silent hitherto ,having realized the current dangerous trends, is today taking a decision to resist the growing menace once again, nursed and nurtured by the groups that were booted out by the people . It is an indisputable fact that the nation finally heaved a sigh of relief when the Rajapakses were ousted on the 8 th of January , and gleefully exclaimed ‘good riddance of bad rubbish at last.’
Sadly ,Maithripala who loudly and proudly announced that all crooks, criminals and the corrupt irrespective of their positions and ranks who flourished clandestinely under the previous Medamulana regime will be duly punished was however clueless when the ex president was issued a notice by the bribery and corruption commission to appear before the commission based on bribery charges. Maithripala was apparently ‘crippled’ unable to control his own SLFP members , not to mention the SLFP ers who were given ministerial appointments by him under his own government when they created a furor . Moreover , these SLFP members have even signed a petition demanding the removal of the Directress general of the Bribery and corruption commission . 116 of them signed it.
It is only the god above knows what is the President’s approach when rounding up the crooks and the corrupt after ousting the only officer appointed to the bribery and corruption commission by the government of good governance. It is noteworthy that except the Directress general , all other officers in the commission are Rajapakse regime appointees.
In view of these developments ,about 60 representatives of the 49 political parties ,trade unions, civil organizations who signed the memorandum of understanding with Maithripala to propel him to victory as a common candidate with a view to defeat the Rajapakse regime and abolition of the executive presidency have decided to hold a meeting at the CSR hall , Maradana on 21st .
There are so many matters on which these groups agreed unanimously in the run up to the last presidential elections. So far , what had been taking place is running counter to the promises given to the people , and against the changes that were pledged , and were to be given effect to following the victory on the 8th of January. But now , goons and gangs are dominating the scene , and all these circus acts are geared to hamper the 19 th amendment . Even the protests that were to be staged today in front of the parliament is also part of that conspiracy , it had been pointed out.
It is also to be decided at today’s meeting to pressurize the president and the prime minister to dissolve parliament and to go for a parliamentary election if the 19 th amendment cannot be passed on the 27 th in parliament .
The representatives of all these political parties , trade unions and civil organizations are also to take a decision to hold a massive demonstration in Colombo on the 27 th with a view to pass the 19 th amendment successfully in parliament in order to prove that the people are steadfastly with the motherland and it is a genuine progressive campaign , unlike the ‘thieves supporting thieves’ which is a country thieving perfidious campaign .
