Despite strictures from the SLFP that its members who vote against the Budgets presented by UPFA-led Pradeshiya Sabhas will be taken to task, the new Budget of the Homagama PS was defeated with 12 members voting against and 10 voting in favour while one member abstained.

The earlier Budget prepared by the Homagama PS was cancelled after a controversy arose when it was taken up for voting.

The Pradeshiya Sabha comprises 20 UPFA members and three from the JVP.

I take my hat off to gentlemen who voted to defeat this budget. Drug dealers, family builders and thugs should not be allowed to have their way.

At least these guys have earned a little respect for what they have done with the vote of the budget.
Like Mevan, I salute them for their action.
