Correct. Oppositions ole is not to oppose what everything government does or proposed to be done. This fact is much relevant to Harsha, leave alone individuals like Chamara. A competent upright individual is the vital criterion for the Posts of this nature.

What does HdeS even mean with that (dumb) remark ? Should a person who did not apply, be appointed and THAT would make it a non-political appointment OR pick a person off the street and make them Auditor General ? Or is this poor English translation ?

Was this government elected to do what previous governments did? What has happened now is that there is no difference between the previous governments and the present government.

Take time out from politics. At present, you are confused, not sure what's right or wrong, and say things for the sake of having to do so. Elected governments have the mandate to implement their policies.the new auditor general seems to have ruffled the feathers, old guard is worried about it and findin faults
