Chairman’s room locked: Committee to get back docs
A committee will be appointed to retrieve the documents lying inside the office room of the Tangalle Pradeshiya Sabha Chairman amidst allegations that the Chairman who is in jail now had locked his office and taken away the keys.Earlier it was reported that work at the Pradeshiya Sabha had come to a stop as its Chairman Chandrapushpa Vidanapathirana, had locked his office prior to his imprisonment.
The Hambantota District Assistant Commissioner of the Local Government said they had informed the Pradeshiya Sabha to send a request in writing if there was such a situation.
“If we receive a request in writing, we will appoint a committee representing both the Local government and Pradeshiya Sabha. The Committee will look into the issue and open up the office to get the documents and to continue the sessions of the Pradeshiya Sabha,” Assistant Commissioner R.G. Kannangara said yesterday.
He said he had also informed the Commissioner in this regard.
Sources said many important official documents were lying in the office. The electricity supply to the meeting hall had also been cut off and the monthly meetings had been held under difficult conditions. (Darshana Sanjeewa)
