The Bodu Bala Sena (BBS) said today provincial councillor Azath Salley should leave politics like a gentleman because his claim that not even 5,000 people would participate at the Nugegoda rally was proven wrong by the participation of a massive crowd.

BBS General Secretary Galagodaatte Gnanasara Thera accused Mr. Salley of making racial comments about the rally.

“We request respectable Muslim leaders and Muslim religious leaders to take action to stop Mr. Salley from making derogatory comments about Sinahala Buddhists and provoking the youth,” (Ajith Siriwardana)
