He was too straightforward and honest for the current jokers. His excellent speech on 22 April 2023 was too much for the opponents. May be a shadow of things to come.

He himself planned to make a claim for his old car through insurance, as long as he is with Mahinda all these cunning ideas will come to him.

Why only this case shooting handed over to the CID. What about other shooting everyday. Its seems that they don't trust the Police.

Why can’t the CID arrest the goons who assaulted Gajendran ponnambalam? What is good for the goose is good for the gander. Oh no but we exhibit racism. Sorry no reconciliation. It has to be two states in one country. Okay.

You seem to have selective reporting. Why was there no reporting of the incident where thugs attacked MP Gajendran. Was it because he is from a minority community and the thugs were from Majority community?
