President Maithripala Sirisena today assured stern action would be taken against anyone who spreads violence in the country and spreads rumours with the intention of provoking citizens.
Making a special statement over the inter-communal clashes reported in several places of the country, the President assured action against the elements which spread violence at a time when the government was taking measures to establish political stability, peace among communities and reconciliation in the country.
He also said stern action would be taken against those who breach peace and provoke citizens by spreading rumours and false news by various means, including social media platforms.
The President said necessary action has been taken after convening the National Security Council to discuss the prevailing situation.
“A proper mechanism had been put in place to take further action after having discussions with Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe and the Cabinet of Ministers. Therefore, everyone should act calm, maintaining law and order,” he said.

Well done! Please work together with Prime Minister... unsavory political elements trying to create instability in the country for their personal benefit. Unity Govt must show they are strong, and take necessary action against anyone inciting violence or acting violently. If the Police did not do enough to stop this, please take action against them also

MS you are a crook and hence hiding rather to go to the trouble spots and speake to the leaders;We understand your protege Gotabay is behind some of the disturbances. Crooks always stand together and protect together.Your passing of orders to the Army and Police has done nothing. So lift up your sarong and go to the trouble areas.
