In a twitter message, UNP leader Ranil Wickremesinghe said the intervention by the Police Commission to prevent the arbitrary executive action of transferring a police officer was an important result of the independent commissions introduced by the 19th Amendment.

“Robust democratic institutions are key to protecting the freedoms of citizens from arbitrary actions of the State. We must defend and strengthen such institutions,” he tweeted.

This cacellation , most likely S/C decision to come on 6th Dec. and many more incidents to come will again and again prove that 19th A is the one capable of stopping a Dictator grabing power in my motherland.

Well these are some of the good done by Yahaoalanaya. Now expose all the curruotion done by politicians as you will surely know how they have amassed their wealth. This will redeem you and then you can retire in peace

Sir elobarate economy of this country non other than any thing. Give it via media and shall support you.

Gamini Tuesday, 20 November 2018 08:24 PM

A leader needs to address every major public incident of the country. He does and did talk of the economy elsewhere. This is only on the context of the transfer. Talking of the economy when addressing a transfer is is off the line.

When there are systems in place one cannot act foolishly. The executive shouldn't be doing these. Good to see the effectiveness of the 19th amendment.

From the supreme court and NPC actions it looks like the government elected in 2015/16 has done somethings correct. It is up to the citizens to maintain these trends. Blaming politicians for everything is useless.

Good move. Slap on president Sirisena's face.

People of this country are well aware of what MS is upto. He helps MR

Arthur Tuesday, 20 November 2018 04:51 PM

Indeed. He has been helping Rajapakses to evade criminal action for the last three years.

Hari Mani Tuesday, 20 November 2018 06:20 PM

Blame RW too. He has been another snake under the grass. Now crying foul when he had all these days in hand.

Robust democratic institutions are key to protecting the freedoms of citizens from arbitrary actions of the State. We must defend and strengthen such institutions.-that is good but you yourself did not follow that for a loooong time especially under your uncle JR

Dee Tuesday, 20 November 2018 04:59 PM

JR was not crazy!

Gemunu Tuesday, 20 November 2018 04:51 PM

We thank RW, UNF governement, JVP, TNA, ACMC, CMC and all other parties and politicians for the 19th Amendment and the indipendent commissions. If these were not there insane Sirisena could have very easility ruined the entire country.

Nimal Tuesday, 20 November 2018 05:32 PM

We are happy about the NPC, but not the way how you were sitting on these cases for 3 years. Sorry we have lost hopes on you.

Hari Mani Tuesday, 20 November 2018 06:26 PM

I remember Vasudeva Nanayakara name calling you, as some old Banekka. Thats what you have been all these days. A vegetable that did nothing. I agree with Vasu on this statement!

Jhon Wednesday, 21 November 2018 04:19 PM

Vasu called him another name too but I can't mention it in the DM.

Dperera Tuesday, 20 November 2018 07:53 PM

Hats remove for the police commission. Keep up the good work !!

Bota Tuesday, 20 November 2018 08:14 PM

There must be another Independent Commission to safe guard the Constitution immediately whenever it's violated.

Ranil your whole life is full of lies. Just go through the same newspaper on the press release issued byte NPC. They have denied any involvement of this officers transfer or its cancellation since this officers division comes directly under IGP. Shame shame for lying to the general public

Liar. Stop lying. The Commission has said it has nothing to do with it.
