For Desha Premees when a non Sinhalese argue with Police it is Yama Palanaya and LTTE is governing north. But when a Sinhalese does the same it is Yaha Palanaya and that man is a true Desha Premiya. via DM Android App

The policemen needs to be taken to task. He cannot use a Chain to hit the drunkard. The policemen should use minimum force to apprehend unruly behavior and let the law do the punishment instead of the uncivilized thing he is doing with his authority and uniform.
