For those of you who hate RW and the yahapalanaya. RTI bill, Data protection bill, independent commissions, the recent election campaign fund bill, national export strategy are a few examples of how RWs leadership has given something useful for the nation as compared to many protests including protests against Sampur power plants, private educations, provincial councils and now about water and tead gas by the so called saints the JVP.

ITS TRUE PEOPLE SHOULD HAVE FREEDOM TO VOICE THEIR OPINION, BUT TO AVOID THE POLICE IN USING TEAR GAS AND WATER, WILL NOT HAPPEN IF THEY BEHAVE IN RESPECTFUL MANNER THAN BEHAVING LIKE RAUDIES.

The best way to avoid getting hurt by tear gas is to dispurse and keep out of illegal protest marches.

Knowing the manipulatory skills of this ill reputed Police, they will produce samples of tear gas as harmless as eye drops to vindicate themselves. The caravan moves on....
