Refrain from sending military to the scene which would bring a situation like another Weliweriya.

Game to diversify the Weliweriya incident from our mind! BBS has become pretty handy to our Government..

1. Foreign elements trying to destroy the SL image
2. JVP behind this carnage
3. Bankrupt UNP trying to gain political mileage
4. Any more Johnny? We are waiting to hear the government's rhetoric..
