She should be sacked and civil action taken for treason.Put her behind bars. That is reconciliation.

TJ Thursday, 05 July 2018 11:46 AM

Vijayakala's outburst was due to the failure of the police force to curb the rampant crimes is Jaffna. Utter frustration had drivin this lady to go insane.Taking moral responsibility, the IGP and the law and Order Minister should also resign.

Damage has been done in a style no one had imagined. Need better and tough laws to prevent such incidents in future.

This is what happens when parties nominate wrong types. She should resign form Parliament and the UNP as she has created a major issue when the country has many to contend with including the men in robes

Saradoel Thursday, 05 July 2018 12:03 PM

I think that she got carried away and got too emotional during the speech. Maybe there were less criminal activities during LTTE time. That was because they were ruthless and punished everyone without any chance for defense. Its the same in North Korea. Don't think that the people of Jafna want that type of a life.

Thank you , pls leave from Jaffna , better to be out of country,

nishanth Thursday, 05 July 2018 02:09 PM

Those who unlined also better be out of our country

Karu Thursday, 05 July 2018 01:09 PM

Good to accept moral responsibility for her lapse. The present Govt does nothing and she should have no regrets about it. What about RK and his bond team

ANTON Thursday, 05 July 2018 01:11 PM

PLEASE EXCUSE THIS YOUNG LADY, SHE HAS BECOME A CHILD AND STARTED KIDDING AFTER TAKING OVER DUTIES AT CHILD'S AFFAIRS........ GIVE HER WOMEN'S AFFAIRS POST EVERYTHING WILL BE OK.

Only the catholic so called church will find you very funny regarding the children jokes

Gihan Thursday, 05 July 2018 01:21 PM

At last a politician who has taken responsibility for their actions. The rest of the parliamentary club should take this as an example on how to behave responsibly in public life.

Ceylon Thursday, 05 July 2018 01:30 PM

Whole government must resign for not implimented promissess.she said nothing implimented but only empty talks.

Jagath Leanage Thursday, 05 July 2018 01:35 PM

After resigning she can join that movement . According to the constitution , she cant do no .

lucky Thursday, 05 July 2018 04:33 PM

Shouldn't she be given a another chance to twist and turn ( I mean this and not that ) the statement like what the other politicians used to do.

Sunderalingam Friday, 06 July 2018 09:00 AM

With the uncivilized majority this is the way to talk

p nonis Friday, 06 July 2018 04:37 PM

The UNP should never have taken LTTE supporters or sympathieses
