Yes, due to Political Pressure he resigned. The reason this man was appointed by MR just to get some votes in his favour, he is not capable to handle the big task and did nothing just marking time. Like him there are somany uneducated, uncivilized people recruited by Mahinda Rajapakshe, they too must resign and get out, otherwise, the pressure from the strong ruling party will be there on them until they resign.

More than that, it is not possible to do any sensible work with petty minded JVP politicians.

Great, we are now in this deplorable situation because of the very sensible work dictated by pugga kings in the past. We now move forwards very very sensibly. Thank you.

Why did he resign? Surely there is a reason why people are quitting.

A very unpleasant trend is developing in this country due to possible over reaction to the perceived malpractices of previous regimes. As if the whole country is engrossed in a massive witch-hunt, with hatred and envy towards everyone and everything, for what happened in the last 76 years. You don’t have to be part of that system to feel how unpleasant is to hear everyday, every morning that someone has been arrested or to be arrested. May be it’s sweet news for some but for the rest of us it’s a miserable feeling. Not because we are guilty of anything but to see a fellow human-being, being prosecuted for something happened decades ago is not a nice thing. We all love feel-good stories and await another bright sunny day and not darkness and gloom. No wonder people are even prepared to sacrifice their livelihoods to get out of this misery! They probably feel why live in such a hapless country, after all when it’s already hard to make a living without this!
